'The pull of a Kalpish Ratna novel is undeniable, even hypnotic.'-The Telegraph What is the chill interface between violence and pseudo-science? What is the secret ingredient of the elixir of youth being doled out by a hakim at Leopold Café? Who was the Bombay Ripper, the notorious serial killer from the late-1800s?
