Anne está investigando a vida de sua tia avó Olívia, cujo destino sempre foi envolto em escândalo. A busca remonta ao início da década de 1920, quando Olívia, recém-casada com Douglas, funcionário público da administração colonial, vai morar com ele na Índia. Lentamente, Olivia fica fascinada pela Índia e pelo governante local, um Nawab que combina a distinção britânica com a pompa e crueldade da Índia. Esse fascínio não é isento de riscos: a região está sendo saqueada por um grupo de bandidos sanguinários, e as intrigas se opõem à comunidade britânica preconceituosa liderada pelo Major Minnies e pelo Dr. Saunders contra o Nawab. Como Anne investiga a história de sua tia-avó, ela é levada a reconsiderar sua própria vida. (e 14 - Estimado 14 Anos)
