Description

Ram Karan's life is a complex web of contradictions. A corrupt official in the Delhi school system, he lives with his widowed daughter and eight-year-old granddaughter in one of the city's slums. But beneath his bumbling exterior, Ram harbours a terrible secret that threatens to destroy everything. When Rajiv Gandhi's murder sends the country into chaos, Ram finds himself trapped in a series of escalating political betrayals. As he tries to protect himself and his family, a shocking revelation from his daughter forces him to confront the darkest corners of his own past. A gripping tale of politics, family and deception, Akhil Sharma's novel is a powerful exploration of the human condition.
