Living on rent in a wealthy, religious house, Chintamoni spends her days holding together her ordinary, lower-class family. Nothing excites her in her marriage to an unremarkable man, while the shadow of her son’s heart disease looms over her austere life. When a secretive devotee of Ma Kali begins boarding in the house, Chintamoni realises that the man has been eyeing her. His arrival kindles her dormant desires, bringing her both love and money. But the events that should have changed her life for the better end up making it much worse. Hidden Treasure is the story of a woman―and of women―struggling to make something of their lives in a world run by men, money, and religion.
