New this month ~ An IndieNext Pick for April:

Frank and Ellie Benton move from Michigan to India in an effort to begin anew following the tragic death of their son.  When Frank begins tutoring the son of their housekeeper, his obsession sets in motion events that strain relationships and lead to a startling conclusion.  A beautifully written book is a contrast in culture, as well as a study in human behavior, grief, and loss.     This will be a good pick for book clubs.
