Description: "Belonging to an elite hit squad whose members all fall somewhere along the autism spectrum, Karan is notorious for his ruthless efficiency carrying out the exdtrajudicial assassinations the Indian Police Service is notorious for. Yet Karan's impenetrable facʹade begins to crack: Should he continue to follow morally suspect orders, or is it time to take matters into his own hands?"--Cover, p. [4].

"A melancholy cop's obsessions are just the tip of the iceberg as he leads a two-fisted team determined to clean up Mumbai's mean streets...Kumar's style, blunt but often by turns poetic and droll, is arresting...As unusual as it is compelling, this entry lays the groundwork for an entertaining series." -- Kirkus Reviews.
