THE JUDGE’S WIFE

Book ID/图书代码: 01890016B89444

English Summary/英文概要: Spanning three decades, this is the moving story of three women and how one great love changed their lives forever.

With her whole life ahead of her, beautiful young Grace’s world changes forever when she’s married off to a much older judge. Soon, feeling lonely and neglected, Grace meets and falls in love with an Indian doctor, Vikram. He’s charming, thoughtful and kind – everything her husband is not. But this is the 1950s and when she becomes pregnant, the potential scandal must be harshly dealt with to avoid ruin.

As soon as she has given birth, Grace is sent to an asylum by her husband and a conniving aunt. Vikram is told that Grace has died in childbirth and returns, heartbroken, to India. Thirty years later, after the death of the judge, his estranged daughter Emma returns home, full of anger and resentment. There she finds Grace’s diaries and begins to uncover a mystery about her mother that she had never suspected. Meanwhile, in India, Vikram is planning a long-awaited trip to Ireland with his much-loved niece, Rosa, who has heard all about Grace and her uncle’s long lost love, so that he can stand, at last, at the grave of the woman he loved.

As secrets are finally uncovered, will they be able to cope with the biggest secret of all?
