People called her names, a witch, an augury, but she was none. She was a goddess. A heart filled with benevolence, love and deep etched agony, but she had none to share those with. Her name meant "To Prevail" and she did exactly that. Ramnagar, the only village of the Bengal province under woman zamindari. And the zamindar? Her, Indali Basu.
He despised all, even the wind that blew past him a little too briskly. Everybody knew him as the devil and one shall never cross their paths with him. Appointed as the Governor General of the Bengal province, he had planned to live a silent life, detached from everyone and everything. Alvin Alexander Ray loathed everything but she came along, drapped in white saree and a face devoid of smile.
A love story set in the early 20th century, where a widow falls in love in a Governor General. She never thought she'll have someone in her life to lean on but he became her knight in shining armour that she never asked for.

Will they be able to overcome all these hurdles? Or will they break away?
