This is a really riveting read. I picked this up on a recommendation off of Good reads and am glad that i did.
This story is that of Kaikeya Lord Rama's step mother, told from her perspective. A little background from the Epic Ramayana and a lot of imagination goes into a page turning tale. I enjoyed reading this and i am sure you will too.

“It is not weak to avoid war,” I said, and my voice broke. Tears pricked at my eyes, and I let them. “It is the strongest thing you could do, to avoid unnecessary bloodshed.”

“You did the right thing," Manthara told me. "No matter what is said about you, Kaikeyi, remember that you did the right thing. You are not wicked."
"Then why do I feel wicked?" I whispered.
"Because those who are good question themselves. Because those who are good always wonder if there was a better way, a way that could have helped more and hurt less. That feeling is why you are good.”
