title: The Night That Changed Everything
author: Gouri, Mangala
description: Karma, an orphan from Delhi, desperately wishes to belong to someone, somewhere. Young and impulsive, she marries Nagaraj from Kullu, not knowing what he really is. She realizes her mistake, but is it too late for a conservative society of the Indian Himalayas? Mayur and Madhu are in love with each other and their two children. What, then, goes horribly wrong? As four lives hurtle through hell, what happens in one single cataclysmic night that spectacularly changes the situation? This book is set in a valley described as one of the most beautiful places on earth, with an equally unique culture-the Kullu Valley. It also explores India from the northern Himalayas to the southern city of Bangalore, briefly touching on the culture and history of these places.
