Light Beneath the Fever Sky

This book began as a meditation on compassion.

I wanted to write about the kind of courage that doesn’t roar - the kind that quietly shows up when others turn away.

The story of Guru Har Krishan Ji, the Child Guru, has always stayed with me - not for the miracles people tell, but for the humility behind them.

In a time of plague, when fear spread faster than illness, a boy no older than eight walked into the heart of suffering and served without hesitation.

I wanted to explore what that kind of light might look like today - in a world that still battles its own forms of fever.

Through Arjan, a young man in Wolverhampton, the story finds new voice: one that bridges faith, culture, and the quiet power of seva.

My hope is that this book reminds readers - wherever they come from - that compassion is not an ancient virtue.

It is a daily choice.
