Sisters of the Sari / Brenda L. Baker.
While vacationing in India, Kiria Langdon, the opinionated and driven CEO of a major company, meets Santoshi, a former slave who now works as a cleaning lady and lives in a shelter for homeless women in Chennai. Appalled by the conditions in the shelter, Kiria becomes obsessed with the idea of building decent housing for poor working women in India. Santoshi reluctantly agrees to help, even though she thinks Kiria’s ideas are too crazy to succeed. Embarking on a rich journey of personal discovery, both women will learn invaluable lessons themselves as they forge a powerful bond of sisterhood across the barriers of language and culture-a bond that makes everything possible."-- Provided by Publisher.
