Making her way in this buccaneering society are Carey Ravine, a spirited young woman of enigmatic background, and her husband, the charming, endlessly enterprising Oliver Nash.

Carey and Nash share connections to India and a desperate desire to make something of themselves. But as Nash draws them into a restless association of gamblers and secret societies, Carey begins to question the seedy glamour of their life.

With a cast of vibrant characters and a story set in fascinating times, Carey’s journey is a compelling one.
