India House - Table Of Contents

I’m still writing my novel India House, but it’s at a stage advanced enough that I can share chapters as I edit them. I’m going to have to edit and rewrite the whole thing again, but I want to share my writing with you all and get any feedback you have, so the final product can be that much better.

There’s a new chapter every Saturday at 9 pm Pacific Time, or 10:30 am India Time.

Blurb/ Back cover

In 1905, Indians live under the tyrannic and oppressive boot of the British empire. Shyamji Krishna Varma, a minister in the Princely State of Junagadh, finds his friend Balgangadhar Tilak imprisoned for sedition by the imperious Lord Curzon-Wyllie. Fearing he may be next if his plot to overthrow the British comes to light, he moves to London, running a boarding house for Indian students. With Madame Cama, the “notorious Parsee of Rue de Ponthieu”, he hopes to sow the seeds of revolution in the young boarders. 

Tatyarao, a calm, diligent, articulate law student joins India House. Shyamji gets more than he bargained for when the young Tatyarao founds Abhinav Bharat, a secret society that brings to life Shyamji’s violent plans to free India. Worse, Lord Curzon-Wyllie is back in London, hunting for seditious Indians to throw into the torturous prisons in the Andaman Islands, where human rights don’t exist. 

As the cat-and-mouse game between Scotland Yard and Young India escalates, Tatya finds his worlds colliding. He must choose if he wants to lead a cushy life in Europe like Shyamji, denying his involvement with Abhinav Bharat, or standing shoulder-to-shoulder with his comrades who worship him, defending them in court, as the might of the British Empire comes down hard on them.
