In 1857 India, 12-year-old Meera escapes a life she has no say in - and certain death on her husband's funeral pyre - only to end up a servant to a British general in the East India Company. When a rebellion against British colonisers spreads, she must choose between relative safety in a British household or standing up for herself and her people.
