About this item
Frankenstein meets Indian mythology in this twisty, darkly atmospheric fantasy where the real horrors are not the monsters you face, but the ones you create.. "One of the most unique and intelligent books I've read. . . Alluring, completely enthralling, and masterfully rendered." - Axie Oh, New York Times bestselling author of The Girl Who Fell Beneath the Sea. Kajal knows she is not a good person. If she were, she wouldn't selfishly be risking her sister's soul in a dangerous bid to bring her back to life. She would let Lasya rest in peace - but Kajal cannot stand the horror of living without her.. As Kajal prepares for the resurrection, the worst happens: Her sister's soul warps into a bhuta - a murderous, wraith-like spirit - and Kajal gets sentenced to death for her sister's rampage.
