The storyline unfolds within the Native State of Chirakul, focusing on the lives of Ananda and his friends, who are grappling with cultural conflicts and personal dilemmas against the backdrop of British colonial India. The novel delves into themes of caste, religion, and identity as Ananda navigates his conversion to Christianity and the consequences of this decision. The opening of the novel introduces a group of characters at an aviation event, where a tragic accident involving an aviator sets a somber tone. Ananda, a Hindu convert to Christianity, struggles with the implications of his faith amidst the intertwined fates of his caste-bound friends, Bopaul and Coomara. Their conversations reveal the tensions and challenges they face, particularly regarding the doctrines of their traditions and the evolving nature of their beliefs.
