The Malkin... Plus - 1

Malkin Jamali and Kurt Steiner bring us two tales of the Subcontinent woman and the European men she manipulates into seeking her blessings. In Mr Steiner's "The Malkin", the European about to enthralled this time is a self-employed English artist living across the hall from a widowed Indian businesswoman. An Indian businesswoman in whom the recently divorced and depressed Daniel Saunders has no interest whatsoever - either as a neighbour or a most unlikely romantic interest.
Until Nadwa Johar sees something. subservient .in her neighbour that makes her change the way she treats him. The results are shocking to both! Ms Jamali's "The Indenturing", tells of  how a long married Englishman's misdeeds catch-up with him when the Indian widow who is now his employer discovers he has been quietly embezzling money from her company to pay for the women with whom he cheats on his wife, his gambling addiction and, more life threateningly, his debt to a Chinese mobster.
A mobster whose charming manner disguises a nature that is utterly ruthless. And perfect for the assertive Indian widow about to offer him a deal. A deal that will keep her employee at her side for good! Believable female-led fantasy fiction for those readers who prefer to use the darker sides of their imaginations with the help of character-driven plotlines. Kurt Steiner is the author of the classics of interracial and female-led fiction, "The Inferior" and "A Journey to Disgrace"; while Malkin Jamali is best known for two classics of her own in "House of Servitude" and "Serving Ms Shreya".
