Synopsis
A story of sacrifice and betrayal during the Blitz, A Thread of Light is the stunning second novel by Neema Shah, author of Kololo Hill.
'Not just a story of two very different women trying to survive the Second World War, A Thread of Light brings to life a part of British history that is less well known.' - Louise Hare, author of This Lovely City
'With its rich blend of history, culture and intoxicating sensory detail, readers of historical fiction are sure to love it' – Carolyn O'Brien, author of The Song of Peterloo
London, 1941.
As the city thrums with Blitz bombers, lonely air raid warden Ruby is drawn into the unfamiliar world of the India Forum, where a group of Londoners are working tirelessly to free India from British rule.
Ruby has her own secret motives for joining the fight, but when she meets Satyajit, charming, aloof, and potentially dangerous, she finds herself torn between head and heart.
Lawyer Kitty is helping Indian men in Britain challenge conscription. Having left her family behind in Bombay to marry the man she loves, now she risks losing him as well.
As Kitty and Ruby’s lives collide, the threat of violence closes in. Just how far are they willing to go for the people they love?
