Sacred River, his first novel, written from a background of India's ancient heritage describes a daring gold heist from a temple in the Himalayas with romance, history, and spirituality. Night Jasmine Tree, his second novel, is the hidden backstory of an Indian man's immigration to the U.S.-a story of rebellion against conservative caste barriers, romance, sacrifice, loss, and final reconciliation that overcomes innate human obstacles.
