Based on actual events and now the inspiration for a major web series, The Story of My Assassins tells the story of a journalist who learns that the police have captured five hitmen on their way to kill him. Landing like a bombshell on his comfortable life, the news prompts him to launch an investigation into the lives of his aspiring murderers - a ragtag group of thugs and waifs - and their mastermind. Who wants him dead, and why?
Part thriller, part erotic romance, part civilizational autopsy, full of dark humour and knife-edge suspense, The Story of My Assassins is a piercing literary novel that takes us from the hedonistic palaces of India's elite to its seediest slums. It is a novel of corruption, passion, power, and ambition. An epic, unforgettable adventure into the heart of today's India
