The Door
Part One Beyond Life
Sam is on her own again. But her time travelling is not finished and she finds herself in 1860, in Northern India, in what was then the Northwest Frontier.
Here she meets and falls in love with an officer in the British Raj, Vivian, finally marrying him. Knowing she cannot stay with him here, she risks all, persuading him that the only way they can be together is for him to come forward in time...
Returning to her present time she elects to go back to India and travel the places that her lost lover had lived and known, in the hope of finding him again.
Hiring an Indian tour guide, a young man born in Lucknow and an historian, the two travel to all the places she knows of Vivian's homeland, extensively through northern India, and get to know each other well. Kaamal confides in her, telling her he is gay and that the love of his life was sent to England 12 years earlier. The strength of the relationship eventually encourages Sam to contrive a reunion for Kaamal and his first love, Ata.
Sam, believing that her cause is lost makes one last trip to Delhi, at the suggestion of the two newly reunited lovers, to give the universe one last chance...
