A profound, unputdownable epic thriller set in Bombay, this standalone novel serves as a sequel to the international bestseller Shantaram. The narrative opens with a vivid scene on Marine Drive, where the protagonist, Lin, an Australian fugitive and former passport forger for the Bombay mafia, grapples with his past and the chaos surrounding him. In this long-awaited sequel, Lin navigates a city transformed by a new generation of mafia dons with different rules. Two years have passed since the events of Shantaram, during which Lin lost his father figure, Khaderbhai, and his soul mate, Karla, who is now married to a media tycoon. Returning from a smuggling trip, he finds Bombay has changed drastically, with many old friends gone and a violent new mafia leadership in place. Amidst this turmoil, a legendary holy man challenges Lin’s understanding of love and life. Yet, he remains tethered to the city by his unresolved feelings for Karla and a fatal promise. This gripping tale will resonate with fans of Vikram Seth, John Irving, and David Mitchell, offering nearly 900 pages of pure escape into a world of danger and intrigue.
