Review
I do not normally recommend crime novels more than 500 pages long, but I am making an exception with Vikas Swarup It's unusual, witty, quirkly, cleverly plotted, intelligent, and along the way it's an informative satire on Indian politics and values...a rollicking good read

'Swarup has a redeeming eye for the disparites that define Indian society.'

A brilliant read,
By
This review is from: Six Suspects (Paperback)
Vikas Swarup follow up novel "Six Suspects" is a richly entertaining and brilliant piece of prose about modern India. He is truly a wonderful and intelligent story teller. The novel plot revolves around the life of six individuals who are on suspicion for the murder of an industrialist. It not a typical murder story, where the main focus is about capturing the murder. As readers, we gain a real insight in life of the six suspects and it like a game of Cluedo. We reach our own judgements about the motives of the characters and who is likely to be the main murderer. It is well plotted and cleverly written with excellent characters, a well defined plot and provides valuable insights into modern India. Six Suspects is another brilliant read by Vikas Swarup, who achieved global success with Slumdog Millionaire. The author continues to impress with Six Suspects.

Captivating...,
By Julie Barnard (San Francisco, CA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Six Suspects (Hardcover)
To be frank, I LOVED this book. I read it in a matter of days, and could not put it down!
The story revolves around 6 people who have the motive and opportunity to kill a high-profile thug and results in a whodunnit thriller. It is a well thought out, well written book, that is easy to read and only gathers momentum towards the end. I highly recommend this read and very much look forward to Vikas Swarup's next book.
