(2) YA On Maya and her father's first day in New Delhi, Sikh extremists assassinate Indira Gandhi. Maya's Sikh father, hiding from vengeful mobs, disappears, and Maya witnesses a horrific murder. She meets teenage boy Sandeep, and the love and respect that grows between them offers hope for Maya. Ostlere's haunting, graceful verse novel probes deeply into what it means to be an outsider.
