The Secret Keeper of Jaipur (The Jaipur Trilogy, #2)
by
by
The a secret Keeper of Jaipur is the 2nd book in a series.
It is now 1969, Lakshmi is now married to Dr. Jay Kumar and living in Shimia. Malik is twenty years of age and has completed his education.
We meet a new character Nimmi, who is a young widow with two children and sells flowers. Nimmi is falling in love with Malik. Lakshmi doesn’t approve.
Lakshmi sends Malik to Jaipur to apprentice with Manu, who is working with the Royal Palace. They are building a state of the art cinema. On opening night the balcony of the theater collapses, causing death and injuries.
Malik discovers irregularities with the construction of the building. All eyes are on Manu. Can Malik find the truth?
Meanwhile Nimmi misses Malik very much and wishes for his return.
As with the Henna Artist this book is rich with vivid descriptions and details of the surroundings. The writing is just beautiful.
Wonderful historical fiction novel.

Excellent review Maureen, I've heard such good things 💕
I was wondering what you were going to make of this book. It was recommended to me based on other books I'd read. 4 stars and a great review. Its on the list
I enjoyed it very much,but I liked The Henna Artist a little bit more. I would suggest reading that first.

Also I listed to the audio of The Henna Artist, it was very good with all the sounds of India.
A lovely review, Maureen! I'm glad you enjoyed it. :)
