Summary
I heard the chimes of her anklets—a haunting whisper, an echo of something too painful. I desired her. A desire so vengeful that it consumed my very being. But make no mistake. It wasn’t a desire born of admiration, or even love, that men such as myself professed to proper ladies. It was one of hunger, born of years of loneliness and isolation, of an aching need for flesh.
Damian Redfern, a solitary young officer of the Imperial Forest Service endures the brooding silence of the Nilgiri hills, India, in 1892, cut off from home and kindred, until he falls into intense lust for Valli, a quiet veiled maid, modest yet haunting.
(Based on true historical accounts)
