Lonely, overworked, and an alcoholic, Daniel Hadfield is a New York Times reporter that feels he has come to the end of his life,that is until he discovers a story.
The reporter reads about the murder of an Indian woman in Bangladesh,killed because she married a man not of her caste. Daniel is so taken by the woman's beauty, he convinces his boss the he should cover the story,eventually traveling to India to meet the dead woman's family and friends.
What the burn out reporter witnesses is a country that is poor and rich - other worldly beautiful as well as outlandishly ugly, the murdered woman's face behind every corner, as if a ghostly lover,giving the newsman a new reason to not only live,but thrive.
The graceful allure of the killed bride haunts Daniel deeply as India becomes the country that gives his life new meaning.
