Overview

A soldier scarred by war. A princess bound by duty. A land haunted by beasts and bandits. In the shadow of empire, the jungles of India hide secrets more dangerous than war. 1922. The remote, jungle-clad mountains of the Kumaon range stir with whispers of fear. Villagers speak of prowling beasts that tear humans apart, and ruthless bandits who vanish into the mist after leaving blood in their wake. The British Raj is stretched thin and restless in the aftermath of the Great War and a decorated officer returns to Uttarakhand to bring peace to the region. Captain Gavin Sanders thought he had left battlefields behind in Europe. But the rugged forests of northern India prove to be no less treacherous. Tasked with tracking predators-both animal and human-he must rely on courage, instinct, and the loyalty of his men. Amidst the hunt, fate draws him into the world of Chunri Rahthore, a beautiful princess, fallen on hard times but bound by duty to her family and traditions. Their forbidden bond ignites in a land where ancient customs clash with imperial power, and where every choice could mean betrayal-or redemption. As violence tightens its grip on Uttarakhand, Gavin must decide whether his true battle lies in the jungles, in the heart of a woman who enchants him, or within the ghosts of his own past. Perfect for the fans of Ken Follett, M.M. Kaye, Jeffrey Archer, and epic tales of historial adventure, 'Death Among the Leaves' is a sweeping story of love and danger set against the untamed beauty of India during the British Raj.
