A memorable story of three delightful girls, growing up against the exotic background of India.

The two English girls and the lovely French girl, contrasting strongly with each other and with the exotic, teeming life of Calcutta. Inseparable, they shared a joyous, carefree girlhood. Parted during the war, when they met again they were young ladies in a newer, more modern India. An India where there seemed to be a great many more young men, and it wasn't long after their arrival that some of those young men became aware that new girls had been added to the city's meager total.
