A behind-the-scenes actor in Indian Prime Minister P.V. Narasimha Rao's abortive attempt to bring Bose's remains to India in the mid-1990s, London-based author Ashis Ray is the longest serving Indian foreign correspondent, having uninterruptedly worked in this capacity for over 40 years, mainly for BBC and CNN, but also for India's Ananda Bazar Group and the Times of India. The book is a culmination of 30 years of extensive research in Taiwan, Japan, Pakistan, Russia, Britain and the United States. Professor Anita Bose Pfaff, the only child of Subhas Bose and his Austrian wife Emilie Schenkl, was born in Vienna on 29 November 1942. She was only four weeks old when Subhas last saw her, prior to embarking on a voyage from Europe to South-East Asia, never to return. She only came to be granted recognition after her uncle Sarat Bose and his family visited Vienna in 1948 and was handed a letter by her mother left behind by her father. In 1960, Pfaff visited India for the first time to be given a rousing reception nationwide, especially in Calcutta. The then Indian prime minister, Jawaharlal Nehru - Subhas's fellow campaigner in India's freedom struggle - hosted her as a house guest at his official residence in Delhi. Coincidentally, she met her future husband Professor Martin Pfaff during this trip.
