| General note | 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.<br/>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.<br/>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.<br/>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. |
