Elevé comme un Hindou, depuis sa plus tendre enfance, Ash est bouleversé d'apprendre qu'il n'est pas indien, mais citoyen britannique et, comme tel, on l'envoie en Grande Bretagne recevoir une éducation digne de son rang. Mais Ash ne s'habitue pas à la vie de l'Angleterre victorienne. Il ne peut oublier ce fabuleux pays où il a vécu ses dix premières années, le palais du rajah de Gulkote adossé aux contreforts de l'Himalaya, ses amis Zarin, Koda Dad, et Juli, la petite princesse triste... Quand il retourne enfin, comme officier, dans sa véritable patrie et qu'on le charge d'accompagner le cortège nuptial des sœurs du maharajah de Karidkote jusque dans le Rajputana, il est loin de s'imaginer que cette mission va décider de toute sa vie.
