This was a heartwarming story with many twists and turns. It gave me a glimpse of life on a tea plantation during the early 20th century, after WWI. It told of the racial tensions between the British settlers and the natives in Ceylon. Excellent story and narration. I love when the narrator gives voice to the many characters in the story, that's what keeps me entertained.
