Intriguing, atmospheric, and often unpredictable\u2026<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

A journalist and police detective join forces to solve a brutal killing in Banerjee\u2019s latest novel. January 1983. Old Delhi is rocked by communal riots, and there are many casualties. But one death stands out and seems different from the others, attracting attention from the media. Shankar Sen, police officer from the Kotwali Station, begins his investigation and is joined by Nitya Chaturvedi, a promising journalist at The New India Courier. Their investigation leads them to a shocking reveal. Banerjee tells two equally engrossing tales\u2014tense homicide investigation and Nitya\u2019s individual story. Well into her thirties, Nitya is struggling with her mother\u2019s expectations of marriage and family while trying to make it big in the men’s world. The plot is brimming with suspense: Shankar and Nitya soon realize that Avneesh\u2019s murder is tied to a much larger conspiracy. Further, Banerjee\u2019s setting is atmospheric; the nation\u2019s capital comes alive, as violence roils the city, threatening peoples\u2019 lives.  And his steady supply of tense moments and intriguing subplots propels the narrative to its finale. A satisfying, engaging tale.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
