"Yet Devi's plans to end it all fall short when she is saved by the last person she wants to see: her mother. Forced to move in with her parents until she recovers, Devi refuses to speak. Instead, she cooks nonstop. And not just the usual fare, but off-the-wall twists on Indian classics, like blueberry curry chicken and Cajun prawn biryani. Now family meals are no longer obligations. Devi's parents, her sister, and her brother-in-law can't get enough - and they suddenly find their lives taking turns as surprising as the impromptu creations Devi whips up in the kitchen each night. But then a stranger appears out of the blue. Devi, it seems, had a secret - one that will touch many a nerve in her tightly wound family. Though exposing some shattering truths, the secret will also gather them back together in ways they never dreamed possible."--BOOK JACKET.
