Vikas Swarup
The basis for The Great Indian Murder, now a streaming series!Vikas Swarup unravels the lives and motives of the six suspects, offering both a riveting page-turner and an insightful look into the heart of contemporary India. Seven years ago, Vivek "Vicky" Rai, the playboy son of the home minister of Uttar Pradesh, murdered bartender Ruby Gill at a trendy restaurant in New Delhi, simply because she refused to serve him a drink. Now Vicky Rai has been killed at the party he was throwing to celebrate his acquittal. The police arrest six guests with guns in their possession: a corrupt bureaucrat who claims to have become Mahatma Gandhi; an American tourist infatuated with an Indian actress; a Stone Age tribesman on a quest; a Bollywood sex symbol with a guilty secret; a mobile-phone thief who dreams big; and an ambitious politician prepared to stoop low.

"3.5-4 stars. There were points where the plot was slow going and it had very large chapters. The ending made it worth it. "

"Better character development than I expected and I was genuinely surprised by the murderer. It had a few motifs and overall enjoyed the read. The American was tough to get through at times but overall I loved each of the characters uniquely. "

"Honestly while i thought the american was written weirdly i actually enjoyed his parts. Coming to get a mail order bride only to be kidnapped by terrorists that was slightly more useless then he himself was. Thought it avtually brought humor to a tough situation."
