It's 1885, and all Nora Shipley wants, now that she's graduating from Cornell University as valedictorian of the entomology program, is to follow in her late father's footsteps by getting her master's degree and taking over the scientific journal he started. The only way to uphold her father's legacy is to win a scholarship, so she joins a research expedition in Kodaikanal, India, to prove herself in the field.  
  
India isn't what she expects, though, and neither is the rival classmate who accompanies her, Owen Epps. As her preconceptions of India--and of Owen--fall away, she finds both far more captivating than she expected. Forced by the expedition leader to stay at camp and illustrate exotic butterflies the men of the team find without her, Nora befriends Sita, a young Indian girl who has been dedicated to a goddess against her will.  
  
In this spellbinding new land, Nora is soon faced with impossible choices--between saving Sita and saving her career, and between what she's always thought she wanted and the man she's come to love.

    Unique Setting

    What captured my interest in A Mosaic of Wings was the Indian setting, and this was definitely the strength of the novel for me. These chapters showed the beauty of India, and something of the culture-both good and bad. \\n\\nI enjoyed seeing Nora develop as a character and make some difficult choices. \\nThe novel wasn't overtly Christian, but Nora's responses to her most difficult choices were definitely based on a Christian world view-even when those choices contradicted the decisions made by some of the Christians she met. Overall, this is a novel about choices and freedom. \\nSome people have more choices than others. It's also about how sometimes we have to make a choice that might not be the easiest choice for ourselves, but is the right choice for others. \\n\\nThanks to Bethany House Publishers and NetGalley for providing a free ebook for review.
