About this listen
Despite the rivalry of the imperial harem, which has plotted against her from the beginning, Mehrunnisa soon becomes the most powerful woman in the Mughal Empire. She rules from behind the veil, securing her status by forming a junta of sorts with her father, brother, and stepson and by risking all, even her daughter, to get what she wants. But she never loses the love of the man who has bestowed this power upon her.

Critic reviews
"The novel's scope and ambition are impressive, as are the numerous period details....Readers who enjoyed the first volume will find similar pleasures tracking the fate of one of history's most intriguing women." ( Publishers Weekly)
"Sundaresan's love of storytelling is apparent in this well-researched historical romance. She makes sure that the reader stays enthralled from chapter to chapter and, with this sequel, will surely do the same in creating anticipation for her next book." ( Library Journal)

Awesome story!
I really enjoyed this book - it’s a rich account of a part of the Moghul empire about which I knew little- loved the strong empress - would love to see this made into a movie!

Beautifully Narrated
What an interesting story, about a subject I had very little knowledge of. It was fascinating. Narration made it all the more enjoyable. I did personally have trouble remembering who was who but got there in the end & well worth it.
