Publisher's Summary

Jaipur, India, 1955. Con tan solo diecisiete años, Lakshmi escapa de un marido abusivo y se dirige a la vibrante ciudad de Jaipur, donde se convierte en la artista de henna más solicitada y en la confidente de las mujeres de las castas superiores. Las clientas creen que la henna de Lakshmi tiene el poder de seducir a sus esposos e incluso de concebir un hijo. Conocida también por sus remedios naturales y sus sabios consejos, debe andar con cuidado para evitar las habladurías que podrían arruinar su reputación. Cuando su marido descubre su paradero y aparece con una joven, Radha, a la que presenta como la hermana pequeña de Lakshmi, el velo de discreción que ha tejido cuidadosamente se ve amenazado.
