On a train journey in 1984, the author watched in horror as two of her co-passangers were beaten up, set afire and left to die in the aftermath of Indira Gandhi`s assasination. The nightmare of that journey led her to find ways of preventing such conflagarations and where violence had already occurred, working towards alleviating the distress and sense of hopelessness that such events leave in their wake. This book chronicles all the flashpoints of the past decades in South Asia.
