Maliha Anderson, a brilliant and fiercely independent Anglo-Indian, is on her way home to make peace with her past and future.

When the nurse of a wheelchair-bound General turns up dead, the accusations begin to fly as fast as the Sky Liner RMS Macedonia zips across the clouds. Unlike the baffled authorities, Maliha believes the General is innocent, and so the mystery begins.

With landfall just hours away, Maliha must find the true murderer before the culprit escapes, even if it means putting herself in grave danger.
