Mystery Woman Sleuth
On an old estate along a quiet river in South India a
family
awaits the
arrival of a granddaughter. When she fails to appear, and
doesn't even call,
the family begins to worry. Anita Ray accompanies her
Auntie
Meena to
comfort her cousin's grandmother, and while there a
maidservant falls into a
trance. The maidservant reports that Devi, the Great
Goddess
is very angry.
Even worse, the maidservant predicts that the missing
granddaughter will
never again visit the estate. The family astrologer suggests an exorcism to cure the
maidservant, and with
this begins Anita's curiosity about the astrologer, his
associates, and the
disappearance of a number of family antiques. The Wrath of Shiva takes the reader into a little-known
world in Kerala,
South India, an old world of sacred groves and the gods
who
guard them, of
devotees who accept divine possession and the exorcists
who
would cure them,
and of the treasures that lie scattered across the Indian
landscape and
those who would claim them
