The news lands like a bombshell on his already chaotic professional and personal life, and triggers his lover, Sara, a fiery and brilliant activist, to launch an urgent investigation into the lives of the ostensible murderers: a ragtag group of thugs and waifs—and their mastermind.\u003cbr\u003e\nWho wants him dead, and why?\u003cbr\u003e\nIn no time, Sara and the journalist find themselves trapped in a hall of mirrors, amid a kaleidoscopic cast of characters that include policemen, crooks, village elders, journalists, venture capitalists, businessmen, lawyers, street children, politicians, whores, and godmen. Nothing is what it seems. No one is who they appear to be.\u003cbr\u003e\nPart thriller, part erotic romance, and in the main a civilizational autopsy, full of dark humour and knife-edge suspense, The Story of My Assassins is a sprawling epic that animates and anatomizes the multiple fault-lines of India. It is a novel of corruption, passion, power, and ambition: a gripping adventure, a revolving beam of light, into the ever-mysterious heart of India.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEAN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789363361263\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePackage Dimensions:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.8 x 6.1 x 1.5 inches\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguages:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Speaking Tiger","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51230411030832,"sku":"PrakashBooks_9789363361263","price":600.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0690\/9968\/4144\/files\/81WLH9iKsbL_843f98e8-f726-4eda-a49b-6d79b2cc3af7.jpg?v=1774760914","url":"https:\/\/www.retailmaharaj.com\/products\/the-story-of-my-assassins-2","provider":"Retail Maharaj","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
