Sacred Games

RM44.00 MYR
Sacred Games
Sacred Games

Mumbai's gritty underbelly meets personal existential crises.

If you're the type to be drawn into the vibrant chaos of a city with deep secrets, "Sacred Games" will take you on a journey through Mumbai's dark corners from the eyes of an introspective detective. Vikram Chandra crafts a narrative that's as much an exploration of the complex human psyche as it is a crime thriller. It's an intricate dance of morality, ambition, and the quest for meaning in a swiftly changing India.

Description

Sartaj, the only Sikh inspector in the whole of Mumbai, is used to being identified by his turban, beard and the sharp cut of his trousers. But 'the silky Sikh' is now past forty, his marriage is over, and his career prospects are on the slide. When Sartaj gets an anonymous tip-off as to the secret hideout of the legendary boss of the G-Company, he's determined that he'll be the one to collect the prize. Sacred Games is an epic novel of friendships and betrayals, of violence and love set against the backdrop of a teeming 21st-century Mumbai.
