Details: About the Book

A FAST-PACED FAMILY SAGE THAT WILL KEEP YOU HOOKED
A sinister curse trails the House of Loya, a powerful Marwari family of arms dealers. Leading oddly distorted lives where immorality and sexual perversions are infinitely glorified, they cruise along mindlessly even as they become victims of strange mishaps and tragedies.
In an unexpected turn of events, political changes deprive the family of their clout and they find themselves in an ugly wrangle with the government. That’s when Bharat Loya, the firstborn in the third generation, takes over as the head of the business. With his deep pockets and facade of hotelier-cum-airline owner, he obliterates his rivals to become the uncrowned king of the pack. Yet, he remains a troubled man.
Set in India in the second half of the 20th century, the story gives a scathing insight into the lives of a Marwari family and the troubled paths they must negotiate.
