Book
Tamarind and the star of Ishta / Jasbinder Bilan.
Sent to India to stay with her estranged family, Tamarind is met with culture shock, secrets, and unanswered questions about her late mother as she searches for her own identity with the help of a mysterious mountain girl named Ishta.
"Tamarind has never met her Indian mother, Chinty, who died shortly after she was born. But when her father remarries, Tamarind is sent to India to stay with the family she has never met, in their atmospheric ancestral home--a huge mansion high in the Himalaya mountains. Her arrival in India brings culture shock, secrets, and unanswered questions: What is the tension between her father and the family, and why will no one talk about her mother? Instead of answers, she is greeted with ominous silence. Taking refuge in the lush gardens one moon-lit night, she follows a friendly monkey to find an abandoned hut and a glowing star ring, and meets Ishta, a mysterious mountain girl. Tamarind unravels the mysteries of the house alongside the search for her own identity"--Provided by publisher.
