This is more than a simple story of a runaway bride. Dishonour and shame are only a part of her troubles. She becomes intensely and passionately involved in a new way of life. However, there are multiple factors at work that conspire to put her life, and the lives of all around her, into serious danger. She struggles to maintain her life and dreams against the machinations of deviant officials. She finds that she is lost in a bewildering world of corruption and deceit. Every time she dodges capture by one or other of her enemies, she discovers that there is another one hot on her tail. The Bombay cousins, her father, her stepmother, the police, immigration officials, evangelists, all seem to have an agenda beyond her ken. Throughout all her trials she works towards creating a new life for herself somewhere in the world. The climax finally reveals that she is enmeshed in a dark and dangerous world which threatens not only her own life, but others she has come to love. The author wrote this story for fun and expects that it will be fun and a joy to read.
