Linda Stevens came to Mala Nagar, India, to do research on the potters and clay-makers of that region. During her stay, the town is cast into national prominence because a holy man, who has taken up residence in an abandoned, burned-out house on Prayer Hill, starts performing miracles. Soon, with the guiding hand of the holy man orchestrating events, Linda becomes the central force in the life of a young orphan boy named Gopal. She also befriends the filmmaker Venkat Raman, who is producing a documentary about the happenings on Prayer Hill. Through an extraordinary catenation of miraculous events, Linda rescues a beggar girl named Qabila from the clutches of criminals and establishes the Miracle of the Rose Children’s Center. The books in this trilogy show how compassion, caring, and direct action can make a transformative difference in the lives of needy, lost, and dispossessed children. Funny, poignant, and richly clothed in humanity, they present a charming picture of Indian life and Indian culture.
