About the Book
The Last Queen: The Forgotten Rebel Who Defied an Empire
"They feared me because I was a woman with power. They tried to silence me, to erase me from history. But queens are not so easily forgotten."
Born in the shadow of the royal palace, Jindan Kaur was never meant to be a queen. The daughter of a humble kennel keeper, she rose to become the last and most beloved wife of Maharaja Ranjit Singh, the Lion of Punjab. But fate had far greater trials in store for her.
When her son, Dalip Singh, inherited the throne at the tender age of six, Jindan defied every expectation to become regent of a crumbling empire, a woman ruling in a world of men. With sharp eyes, an iron will, and an unbreakable spirit, she vowed to protect her son’s legacy, standing fearless against the encroaching British forces who sought to claim Punjab as their own.
A Queen, A Warrior, A Mother: The Woman Who Refused to Bow
Jindan Kaur’s defiance was a thorn in the side of the British Empire. Her strength, her influence, her sheer audacity to lead—they feared her more than an army of men. And so, they sought to silence her:
They branded her a seductress, a schemer, a threat.
They imprisoned her within the walls of her own kingdom.
They exiled her, tearing her away from her son, her people, her home.
But they could not break her. From exile, she plotted, fought, and defied—a rebel queen who would not be forgotten.
A Love Story, A Betrayal, A Legacy That Refuses to Fade
At once an exquisite love story, a cautionary tale of betrayal and ambition, and a stirring testament to a mother’s unbreakable bond with her child, The Last Queen is a gripping, lyrical tribute to one of history’s most fearless women.
In this breathtaking novel, Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni resurrects Jindan Kaur, the queen history tried to erase, and gives her the voice she always deserved.
