Description
You can leave the grove. The grove doesn't leave you. An Indian architect living in London discovers that the compound in his bloodline, grown by his grandfather in a Kerala backwater, has become the operational foundation of a trafficking network that has moved hundreds of women across South and Southeast Asia. To expose it, he must enter a flooded Rajasthan fort, face the intelligence who built the network, and decide what he is willing to permanently become. A relentless psychological crime thriller set across Mumbai, Kerala, Nagaland, Myanmar, London, and New York, The Bloom moves at the speed of a chase and the depth of a nightmare - the kind of book that gets under the skin and stays there. Perfect for readers of Don Winslow, Stieg Larsson, and international crime fiction with something to say. "A Mumbai architect opens his dead grandfather's envelope - and inhales an empire he can't unknow and can't escape."<BR>
