About This Book
There's a caste system even in murder. Seven years ago, Vivek 'Vicky'
Rai, the playboy son of the Home Minister of Uttar Pradesh, murdered
Ruby Gill at a trendy restaurant in New Delhi simply because she refused
to serve him a drink. Now Vicky Rai is dead, killed at his farmhouse at
a party he had thrown to celebrate his acquittal. The police search each
and every guest. Six of them are discovered with guns in their
possession. In this elaborate murder mystery we join Arun Advani,
India's best-known investigative journalist, as the lives of these six
suspects unravel before our eyes: a corrupt bureaucrat; an American
tourist; a stone-age tribesman; a Bollywood sex symbol; a mobile phone
thief; and an ambitious politician. Each is equally likely to have
pulled the trigger. Inspired by actual events, Vikas Swarup's eagerly
awaited second novel is both a riveting page turner and an insightful
peek into the heart and soul of contemporary India.
