Book excerpt: " HAPPY HANGING!" Saralkar growled with all the spite in his system and stormed out of the cell. Weeks before serial killer Dharmesh Solanki is to be executed, he wickedly burdens Senior Inspector Saralkar with a macabre secret Saralkar would' ve been better off not knowing. Impelled to verify Solanki' s disturbing claim, Saralkar and PSI Motkar reopen the sixteen-year-old case, for which the senior inspector had won a police medal. And out tumble intriguing leads and shocking facts that had fallen through the cracks back then. Worse, only a motley group of elusive characters might form the shaky bridge to the murky truth-- a missing ex-constable, a gluttonous witness who had narrowly escaped being murdered by Solanki, Solanki' s biographer, the serial killer' s own son, and the daughter of one of his victims. Meanwhile another dangerous murderer is busy prowling around for victims to notch up an impressive body count. In the midst of these crazy events, Saralkar' s marriage faces rough weather, while Motkar' s hands are full, investigating a trail of mysterious suicides. As the duo struggle to cope, personal tragedy strikes Saralkar and a tip-off propels Motkar into confronting an astonishingly diabolical psychopath on his own. Will Motkar prove up to the challenge? Will Saralkar recover his mojo in time? And will Saralkar and Motkar ever make sense of the complicated chain of murders and suicides and the dark secret of a despicable serial killer sentenced to death?

Book excerpt: 'A riveting book on real-life crimes and how the police solve them. We sleep in peace in a world made safer by these supermen and women in white.'--Sourav Ganguly, cricketer Brother kills brother using the plague bacteria as a murder weapon. A man is killed in his sleep and his body walled up in the house. A seemingly docile housewife masterminds a gruesome twin murder... The Kolkata Police is one of the oldest and most illustrious police forces in the country. In Murder in the City, Supratim Sarkar digs deep into their archives and chooses twelve astonishing cases to recount, bringing investigators, criminals and indeed the city to life in startling detail. Among the cases described in these pages are one where the method of 'photographic superimposition' was used for the first time ever in India to identify a body; another, where a single word led the police to a ruthless killer's hideout; and an extraordinary case of a kidnap and murder that was solved even though the body was never found. Initially written in Bengali for the Kolkata Police Facebook page and website, these stories went viral and were shared widely when they appeared online for the first time. Here, they have been translated and compiled into a book that is as utterly gripping as it is fascinating.
