I loved these book, about a Raj orphan who becomes a judge, a tale untold before, and certainly not as engagingly. The second book is the story of Filth's wife, and her adventures in the war, her secrets and passions.
Many intriguing and touching story lines and mysteries. Spans British Empire, Singapore (I think), Columbo, the war, the Inner Temple, and more.
Prizes -- short listed for Orange Prize. The writer who started the Orange Prize spoke at the writers festival in October -- Kate Mosse.
