Best historical novels about British in India

I’ve recently taken part in an exciting new book project with Shepherd.com who are on a mission to discover the best books! “We ask authors to share their favorite books around topics and themes they are passionate about and why they recommend each book. We want to create an experience like wandering around your favorite bookstore but reimagined for the online world.“

I chose my passion – historical novels about the British in India. From E.M. Forster to Shona Patel, I recommend five very different books that fired up my interest in India.
