The Brotherhood: The Brotherhood Trilogy

by Tejas Desai

Overview

The Brotherhood is Tejas Desai's first novel. Set in contemporary New York City, this hypnotic thriller moves at a breathtaking pace and keeps you guessing until the very end. Niral Solanke, a failed writer, has become a sleazy private investigator who tails wealthy adulterers. But when his childhood friend Priya commits suicide, her brother Amrat believes it could be murder-perpetrated by wealthy financier Vishal Patel. As Niral investigates, he realizes that nothing is what it seems, as he is confronted by betrayal, religious hypocrisy, sexual deviancy and much more, until shocking revelations threaten his core beliefs-and his very existence. Informative as well as entertaining, the book includes a Glossary of Hindu Terms. It is the first part of The Brotherhood Trilogy. "A Mickey Spillane novel with a Bombay flavor ... set in New York City.... it is a nice warm cuddly pulp fiction with a global marinade"-Larry H., Evil Parrot Book Club Book Website featuring photos, character descriptions and much more: http: //brotherhoodnovel.tumblr.com Book Trailer: http: //www.youtube.com/watch?v=LlnOxTxYrh0 Author Website: http: //tejas-desai.com Publisher Website: http: //thenewwei.tumblr.com Facebook Pages: https: //www.facebook.com/brotherhoodnovel https: //www.facebook.com/pages/The-New-Wei/347753751979015 https: //www.facebook.com/pages/Tejas-Desai/336310006464518 Twitter: https: //twitter.com/TejasDesai99
