On a routine day, or so it seems to inspector an gre, a young motorcyclist delivering pizzas dies in an accident on the lower parel flyover. An gre in the mumbai traffic police hasn’t exactly earned a good reputation for himself. He asks too many questions, is stubborn, and given to a studied vagueness. And all this has not endeared him either to politicians or his colleagues. So when he notices a bullet injury on the dead motorcyclist’s neck, it makes him curious, and he begins poking around. But as one dot seems to lead to another, a spate of deaths follow and an gre, isolated within his own force, realises he is on his own. It is a thankless case to pursue, and matters are not helped when his own personal life is in turmoil. Is the search for truth a lonely, uncompromising one? Is the gunman rawat, who an gre is chasing all over the place, the real villain or is it someone else altogether? And then, as an gre gets embroiled in the case, he understands that ‘truth’ can occupy a fuzzy space, when friends turn enemies overnight and your enemy could be the one whose help you one day come to need desperately. Anu kumar lives in singapore. Her most recent novel is it takes a murder (hachette india). Inspector an gre and the pizza delivery boy is her first novel based in mumbai, a city she lived in for many years and has never really left. She has been awarded for her stories by the commonwealth foundation (2004, 2010) and the little magazine (tlm) in 2006.
