Sagramanda

Set in Sagramanda; city of 100 million; this is the story of Taneer; a scientist who has absconded with his multinational corporation's secret project code and who is now on the run from both the company and his father. Depahli; the fabulously beautiful woman from the ''untouchable class'' would die for him; just as surely as his father would like to kill him for shaming the very traditional family for such a relationship. Chalcedony ''Chal'' Schneemann doesn't want to kill Taneer; if he doesn't have to; but it wouldn't upset him terribly much if it came to it; and he'll stop at nothing to recover the stolen property for the company that pays him very; very well to solve big problems discreetly and quickly. Sanjay Ghosh; a poor farmer-turned-merchant in the big city of Sagramanda would like to help Taneer unload his stolen items; for the $30 million dollars his 3 percent fee is worth. Jena Chalmette; a crazy French woman pledged to Kali; simply wants to kill for the glory of her god; and she's very good at it. Chief Inspector Keshu Singh would like to put this sword-wielding serial killer away as quickly as possible before the media gets a hold of the story. Then there's a man-eating tiger; come in from the nearby jungle reserve and just looking for his next meal. A fast-paced and gripping techno-thriller set in an India just around the corner from today.
