Over 140 years, a Parsi clan from the ancient town of Navsari, meanders through plagues and curses, adulterous wives of cockless husbands, limerick reciting priests and conscientious black magicians, corpses desperately awaiting vultures, scorpion bite curers and fornicating first cousins, Sufi mystics, and poignant lovers; and, of course, the crusade to save the sacrosanct Towers of Silence; a story where not even the most perceptive can tell what is magic and what is real.
