Bulbul Sharma, Janice Pariat, Manjula Padmanabhan, Mitra Phukan, Paro Anand, Pratyaksha, Uddipana Goswami, Venita Coelho. Eight of India's best fiction writers come together to produce a book of intrigue and murders most foul. In Mitra Phukan's story that opens this edge-of-the-seat anthology, She Stoops to Kill: Stories of Crime and Passion, a singing diva chokes to death onstage. The weapon is a poisoned paan-but who would want her dead? And Pratyaksha follows Mitra's entrée with the murder of an equally glamorous victim-air hostess Ginny Kalra. Bulbul Sharma, in 'Murder in the Wedding Season', creates a cosy setting for a wedding in Shimla; but the guests include a politician and a timorous widow whose past will disrupt the party in ways no one had imagined. And in Uddipana Goswami's 'Beloved of Flowers', a folktale about a girl reborn as a lotus leads young Dino to the truth behind a mysterious disappearance. Manjula Padmanabhan's 'Serial Killer' brilliantly explores what it is like to be a perfectly normal person-except that you enjoy the act of murder. While Janice Pariat's delicately nuanced 'The Nurse' shows us another side of death altogether. In the penultimate story by Venita Coelho, Sister, a vigilante eunuch, helps the police solve a gruesome killing in a city slum. And Paro Anand brings the collection to a grand finale with a story that begins with lust and ends with a murder-or two-that may or may not have happened. By turns chilling, horrific and morbidly fascinating, She Stoops to Kill: Stories of Crime and Passion, is a steaming witches' cauldron of stories that will keep you riveted, page after page.
