Every Word Unsaid
series: Dreams of India
About
Augusta Travers has spent the last three years avoiding the stifling expectations of New York society and her family's constant disappointment. As the nation's most fearless--and reviled--columnist, Gussie travels the country with her Kodak camera and spins stories for women unable to leave hearth and home. But when her adventurous nature lands her in the middle of a scandal, an opportunity to leave America offers the perfect escape.
Arriving in India, she expects only a nice visit with childhood friends, siblings Catherine and Gabriel, and escapades that will further her career. Instead, she finds herself facing a plague epidemic, confusion over Gabriel's sudden appeal, and the realization that what she wants from life is changing. But slowing down means facing all the hurts of her past that she's long been trying to outrun. And that may be an undertaking too great even for her.

Reviews
"Many of Duffy's scenes and several plotlines tug at the emotions. Not just a trip to the India of a century ago, this is an honest and thought-provoking . . . exploration of deep-seated human fears and quests for meaningful lives. Relatable secondary characters, both Indian and American, add to the rich context."
