The Hope of Shridula continues Kay Marshall Strom's Blessings in India series of Christian historical fiction. India, 1946: for forty-eight years, Ashish and his family have toiled as slaves in the fields of the high-caste Lal family, all because of one small debt. At fifty-four, Ashish is old and worn out, and every day is a struggle to survive, for him and for his only daughter. Her mother named her Shridula, meaning Blessings. Perhaps the name will bring you more fortune than it brought me, Ashish tells his daughter, words that prove prophetic in ways he could never have imagined. As the flames of revolt bring independence to India, that upheaval sears change into Ashish's family. The novel is a saga set in India's history that points toward a future of hope, where name-only Christianity collides with Hinduism and is confronted by an entirely new understanding of the call to follow Christ. Kay Marshall Strom is an established Christian fiction author whose work includes the Grace in Africa series. The Hope of Shridula is the second novel in the three-book Blessings in India saga.
