The Peacock Stone Audiobook Summary
A young girl comes to live in the slums of New Delhi. It is a place of danger where street gangs rule. Through the initiative of a blind beggar, she is taken to work in the home of a rich businessman and his dysfunctional son. There, she observes a world of education and privilege-a world that is out of her reach.
But danger still stalks her.
A kidnap attempt forces her to flee to her childhood home in the tropical backwaters of Kerala-a land of wooden boats, fishing, and elephants. But she cannot hide forever. She must band together with her old friends from Delhi, a medical student and a nun, to unravel the significance of the pendant given to her by the blind beggar-the peacock stone. Why does the stone bring death, and how is it linked to one of the biggest jewel thefts in history?
