| Summary, etc | Sitting by the window, watching the girls of All Saints College walk past, Radhey Radhey has nothing much to look forward to in his boring, retiree’s life until Miss Fofo, ‘the sizzling sex siren of sin city’, goes missing. With the help of his very resourceful friend Anwar, ageing RR turns into an enthusiastic amateur detective and plunges headlong into the murky underworld of Delhi. On this dangerously exciting mission, which takes him to gay bashes and wife-swapping parties, he encounters shady characters such as the Poetic Pimp, who is fond of quoting English poetry and the malicious Don, who owns every badass in town, as well as the Guru of the Hires. In this boisterous thriller, The Country is Going to the Dogs, join the over-sexed retired accountant, RR, on a wild ride as he dives into the sexual underbelly of Delhi. Key Features: Latest offering by the author of the bestseller, Inscrutable Americans. Mystery, suspense and thriller, all with a greater purpose. A book that attempts to break society’s constricted notion about women and sexuality, revealing the double standards of those who claim to be ‘moral’. |
