This book deals with the defiant resistance faced by Mughals from the Zamindars of Bengal for more than eighty years, the atrocities of the Nawabs of Bengal, and the false allegations on Nawab Siraj-ud-Daulah by the British. History, during the Mughal period, was recorded by royal courtiers who wrote about the Emperors and Governors, exalting their victories and achievements. Rarely were the resistance of the Zamindars of Bengal recorded, if at all mentioned. The British contorted history to suit their schemes, denigrating and deriding the people of this country to justify colonial rule. The history of India, as taught to us, is not always a true depiction. It is the history of the foreigners who came and ruled India. The history has been repeatedly dressed up to suit their requirements. Facts have been misrepresented, misinterpreted or deliberately suppressed to serve the purpose of the ruler. The author has tried to present the occurrences in Bengal during the Mughal period from their correct perspective, through extensive research and cross-studies of many historians, both Indian and foreign, cross-vetting the truth and actuality.

Indraneel, the son of a schoolteacher and brother to activists, has felt the call to revolution ever since he was a young boy. His life's mission is clear-to free India from its oppressors. Olivia, the daughter of a ruthless British officer, has spent most of her lonely life tucked away in cantonments. But as she comes of age, she finds herself unable to resist the pull of the people and customs of India-the only home she's ever known. Peter is an opportunistic Anglo-Indian orphan torn between his two selves, pledging allegiance to neither, until a chance encounter with revolutionaries changes the course of his life forever. As the fires of revolution are lit across India, we follow these three lives along the length and breadth of the country-from Amritsar to Calcutta and onwards to Ross Island in the Andamans. Thorns in the Crown tells a story of belonging and courage against the backdrop of India's struggle for independence and the emergence of a new social order.
