More about the book

The plot revolves around a cursed diamond, stolen from India during the Mutiny, and its dark legacy. Bequeathed to Rachel Verrinder on her 18th birthday by her estranged uncle, the Moonstone brings misfortune and intrigue. The diamond's origins tie it to a Hindu cult, leading to a quest by Brahmins to reclaim it for their temple. Themes of revenge, family estrangement, and the clash of cultures unfold as the narrative explores the diamond's impact on those who encounter it.
