The woman broke her long-held silence to speak to the WSJ about what happened.The book ends with the WSJ's world-beating coverage of the New Delhi rape case, including intimate portraits of the victim and her friend who tried to save her but couldn't. He granted the WSJ intimate and exclusive access to tell his side of the story.In this e-book, we are bringing together these stories -- in many cases updated with fresh details of the individuals' lives -- to show the hopes and the catastrophes, the bravery and the abuse that are the daily lot of millions of India's women.
