DEAD END

Corrupt ministers. Ineffective police. A corpse. And lots and lots of paperwork.Bangalore 1987. When a nondescript advocate attempting to correct a 'typographical error' is brutally murdered two post-mortems and multiple police investigations lead nowhere. Now in his first-ever murder case CBI officer Kuppuswamy Ragothaman must lead an investigation spanning three states wade through the maddening world of bureaucratic red tape and step into the murky world of politics as he tries to build a case against the state Home Minister the police and his own colleague. Will he be able to bring justice to an innocent man or will forces much more powerful than him control the outcome? This thrilling tale of true crime is based on author V. Sudarshan's extensive interviews with the CBI officer K. Ragothaman and brings to life a murder investigation that shook the country over three decades ago.
