商品描述: A sweeping saga of modern India, The Story of My Assassins is gripping from its first sentence: The morning I learnt I d been shot I was sitting in my office on the second floor looking out the big glass window...

Based on actual events, it 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, just as he s started a steamy affair with a brilliant woman, the news prompts him to launch an urgent investigation into the lives of his would-be murderers a ragtag group of street thugs and village waifs and their mastermind. Who wanted him dead, and why?

Part thriller and part erotic romance, full of dark humour and taut suspense, The Story of My Assassins is a piercing literary novel that takes us from the lavish, hedonistic palaces of India s elite, to its seediest slums. It is a novel of corruption, passion, power and ambition; of extreme poverty and obscene wealth.
