The Wonder House is a houseboat moored on Nagin Lake in the Valley of Kashmir, on which Gracie Singh, an ageing Yorkshirewoman, has been living out her widowhood since the death of her Indian husband. She has moulded herself a new family with two Kashmiri women, Suriya and her daughter Lila, who tend to her in her dotage.
