Review "Gowda has masterfully portrayed two families...linked by a powerful, painful tie that complicates their lives...A thought-provoking examination of the challenges of being a woman in America and in India -- and in the psychological spaces in between." (Chitra Divakaruni, author of The Palace of Illusions ) "Set in California and the teeming city of Mumbai, SECRET DAUGHTER is a beautifully composed compelling story of love, loss, discovery and the true meaning of family." (Anjali Banerjee, author of Imaginary Men )
