Dear Librarian, I have always been intrigued by the idea of voice – who is empowered to speak and who is not – within in a family, a community, or a nation. What would happen, I wondered, if the voices of the silenced were at long last heard, whispering their version of truth? HAUNTING BOMBAY is the story of Pinky Mittal, a girl raised by her grandmother in Bombay's old colonial enclave. One night, Pinky unbolts a forbidden door, accidentally unleashing the ghost of a child who had drowned there years earlier. As the ghost plunges their lives into chaos, Pinky must find the courage to uncover the mysterious truth of the drowning. HAUNTING BOMBAY is ultimately a collision of love and loyalty, and a desperate search for belonging. You can e-mail marketing@sohopress.com to enter to win one of 5 signed copies of the book.
