Back of the book

When the devilishly handsome, legendary Bollywood superstar Rajvir Kapoor is found dead in the 30th-floor study of his new home, Xanadu, the entire country is shocked. Barely hours before his death, Xanadu had been teeming with hot-shot celebrities, business magnates and close friends and family of the iconic actor — all of whom had come together for the grandest party Mumbai had ever seen. Investigations reveal that Rajvir Kapoor was murdered, and now everyone is a suspect. 

Prof Shantanu Bose, eminent nano-expert and part-time sleuth, a house-guest at the time of murder, is willy-nilly forced to join the investigation. He finds himself in an alien world of the glitterati and their idiosyncrasies, where murky secrets are revealed and facts muddled. As Shantanu struggles to solve the puzzle amid the confusing moral codes adopted by the people of this starry realm, glamorous Mumbai seduces him and he finds himself attracted to the enchanting prime suspect. Will the professor manage the tightrope walk between emotions and truth?
