He died to correct a mistake. He was reborn to rewrite destiny.
Ashton Honda, a retired Supreme Court Judge, has lived for thirty years in a prison of his own making. Haunted by the memory of condemning an innocent man to death to protect the brother of the woman he loved, Ashton seeks a final appeal. Guided by an ancient text, he travels to the submerged pagodas of the Coromandel Coast, seeking the waters of reincarnation.
He enters the ocean as an old man. He wakes up as Asha—a beautiful, young temple dancer in the ancient Kingdom of Bhoomi.
But this new life is not a fresh start; it is a trial. In the temple, Asha finds the souls of her past waiting for her: the innocent man she failed, now a humble potter; the villain she protected, now a wealthy tyrant; and a mysterious madam who guards the temple’s secrets.
Armed with the memories of her past life and a new, psychic sight, Asha must navigate a world of kings, curses, and stolen jewels to right the scales of justice. But as she uncovers the truth, she realizes that the memory she died for was a lie—and the soulmate she has been searching for has been watching over her all along.
Domes of Destiny is a lush, mystical tale about the fluidity of gender, the weight of karma, and a love that transcends time itself.
