GURKHA (gur-kuh) n.

Nepalese warriors sworn to protect the world from demons [mythic]; A Nepalese soldier in the British or Indian army [contemporary].

Set in 1914 in the mighty Himalaya mountains, Gurkha is an epic historical fantasy following a proud young woman, Devi, and her battle with the shape-shifting demon, Mahisha, who haunts the isolated valleys. But Devi soon finds her fight is not on one front alone. When the British arrive unannounced, she is thrust into a new world where many more troubling life and death choices must be made. From grappling with restless demons to the bleak horrors of trench warfare during World War I, Gurkha is a mythical journey exploring the vengeful darkness of grief, the rise of Nepali hillmen as legendary soldiers, and the search for the divine here on earth.
