āI suppose heās still pretending he donated the money anonymously to Ādomestic-Āviolence charities.ā
āIn small sums.ā Part of me believed him. The rest wondered if the quarter million heād found accidentally when he hit the wrong switch and the boot popped open had become his freedom when it came to his ĀaffairsāĀno need to hide spending, no need to cover up a paper trail.
āItās done.ā Lily looked out at the breathtaking alpine scenery that surrounded us in the mountains of a city that had once been the residence of kings.
A fitting resting place for a woman as dazzling as any queen.
But as I looked over this landscape, I couldnāt help but wonder if my motherās spirit would linger on in the cold green place that had been her tomb for a decade.
Oh, Ari. Laughter on the breeze, a ghostās kiss on my cheek. I was never trapped, mere dil ka tukda. That was always you.
ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
A very special Āthank-Āyou to my parents, Usha and Vijay, for checking on my Hindi. Any mistakes are very definitely mine. (A note about transliteration: Since Hindi has its own alphabet, there are often variant spellings for things in the English alphabet. I tried to choose the most common spelling where I could, but otherwise just picked one and went with it.)
The Te Reo MÄori in this book is from my own ĀknowledgeāĀmost of the words are in everyday use in New Zealand.
A huge Āthank-Āyou to the incredible team that worked on this ĀbookāĀand the equally incredible people who have helped spread the word about it. I canāt name you all, but I hope you know how much I appreciate you.
Thank you to Ashwini for being my sounding board even when I drive you up the wall. And to Rene, thank you for taking me on all those long and winding drives to find locations for fictional dark deeds.
Last but never least, my thanks to you, for picking up this book.
