India Jane is over the moon. At last she is to have a proper home in a fantastic Georgian house in Notting Hill Gate. India is fifteen and has been on the move with her bohemian parents for the whole of her life. But her plan of a London summer making friends is shattered when her father takes a position in an orchestra in Sydney and her mother plans to join him. This means that India, nicknamed Cinnamon Girl by her father, is being shipped off to her aunt who runs a health and meditation spa in Greece. The tiny Greek island has a few surprises for the reluctant India. She watches from afar the serene and spiritual Baba Ji, and gradually she becomes hooked on his way of life. She wants to find her true home - to find the thing that is constant. This is a book not only about growing up and finding oneself, but also about the very special relationship between fathers and daughters.
