An English aristocrat by birth, Ashton was raised by a simple Indian woman, Sita, and considered himself an Indian. He always believed that happiness awaited him in a green valley beyond the snow-capped peaks of the mountains called Dur Khaimah, which means Distant Shatras. However, before he dies, Sita confesses that she is not his birth mother and he is actually an Englishman. The boy is sent to England to get a decent education. After graduating from a prestigious military academy, Ashton returns to India in the hope of making a decent career and meeting old friends. However, after a while, the young man realizes: he never became an Englishman, but the people of India do not consider him their own. By duty, Ash accompanies two Indian princesses to the principality, where their wedding is to take place. And during this long journey he falls in love with one of the princesses, Anjali, and although she reciprocates, the lovers realize that they will never be together. It seemed that they will be separated forever, but events begin to develop in the most unpredictable way ... "Distant Shades" - one of the greatest literary sagas of our time, standing in a row with such masterpieces as "Gone with the Wind" Margaret Mitchell and "Singing in the Blackthorn" Colin McCullough.
