When Bindra contracts leprosy, she is driven from her home in the Himalayan foothills with her two small sons and embarks upon a seemingly impossible course in search of salvation.David's first journey to India is driven by devastating loss, and yet he finds unexpected solace in the discovery of an exceptional family legacy, and insights offered by an unorthodox mountain tradition.And as these individual journeys progress their stories are woven together, cultural differences are dissolved, and an extraordinary relationship is formed which forges unanticipated changes in both their lives.In the Shadow of Crows is an account of love and loss, a lyrical ode to the wonderful and terrible beauty of India, and a masterly meditation on the interweaving of separate lives.
