He was raised to inherit an estate. She was raised to marry one. Neither of them was prepared for India. London, 1898. James Harrington has everything a young aristocrat could want: heir to a title, his future and fortune secured, a wife, and a young daughter. His family expects him to preserve tradition, but James dreams of building something that will endure beyond inheritance.When he accepts an engineering position on the ambitious Kalka-Simla Railway in British India, he abandons the life carefully mapped out before him. The Harringtons leave the comforts of England behind for a land as breathtaking as it is unfamiliar.James does not yet know that India will demand more of him than building a railway ever could. As the railway claims lives and tests loyalties, he must decide what kind of man he wishes to become. What Margaret finds in India unmakes her quietly and completely, forcing her to decide what she is willing to leave behind to become the woman she was always meant to be.Between a tunnel that refuses to meet in the middle, a barefoot mystic who reads mountains like scripture, and strangers who slowly become family, James and Margaret build something neither of them expected: a life. A real one.Spanning a decade and an ocean, Of Iron and Incense is an evocative story of courage and compassion, engineering and faith, family and belonging, and the extraordinary power of choosing one’s own path.Some bonds are forged. Others are simply found.
