Synopsis Sarah MacDonald is an Australian journalist who lived in India for several years when the man she loved was posted there. As she struggles to get used to India's often startling differences from the life she knows--and to the world-class pollution of New Delhi--MacDonald comes down with a serious case of double pneumonia.
