TEARS OF THE DRAGON AN ARJUN ARORA MYSTERY

DeScriPtion

Detective Arjun Arora feels his life is crumbling around him. His father has

passed away, and he cannot forgive the corrupt police officer who sent Arjun

into a coma a year back. And then, a young widow visits him and presses him

to take on a new case: to investigate her husband's mysterious death. Rohit

Vats was a pharmaceutical company executive who had recently returned

home to Delhi from a work trip to China. Soon after, he turned up in a seedy

part of Kolkata-dead.

Was it a love affair gone wrong, geo-political intrigue, or corporate rivalry

which led to Vats' death? Arjun finds that Vats might have been looking into

illegal wildlife trafficking and zoonotic diseases like SARS. Increasingly, it

appears that the answer to the mystery might lie in China.
