Welcome to Litsy!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A really good, thought-provoking read! I really enjoyed this and am interested to see how the TV adaptation turns out.

@Tonton I'm enjoying this so much! It can't be very long as I've read about 60% already, but it's so good! Thanks again for putting it on my radar!

There‘s a man pinned by debris in a bombed out building, and he‘s deliriously mumbling out details of what is determined to be a terrorist attack in real time; police are following a suspect who picks up Laila, who‘s apparently a good girl from a good family. Biting social commentary on Indian politics.Disney optioned the book (probably for Hulu or FX as it‘s definitely un-Disney).

A building collapses in Mumbai. In the debris is a man who is mumbling something in delirium. It appears that he is passing on the real-time movements of a young Muslim couple. Elsewhere, a young intelligence agent is assigned to shadow two terror suspects. Taking up a slice of recent history, the novel glares at the entire system – not just politicians, the bureaucracy, the police and lackeys, but also the good folks.

First of all brilliant cover! I guess the cliché of not judging a book by its cover is not true for me, as in modern times it is quite easy to have decent design with so much out there. Coming to the story, it was good. Such a thriller that I could not put it down until it was over, and the ending is beautiful.

One thing is for sure it can transform and improve your political thoughts to whole new level, and that is the best thing.

An absolute thrill to read this book. https://thecommonshelf.wordpress.com/2018/01/05/miss-laila-armed-and-dangerous-o...
