The Age of Vice
the Deepti Kapoor
Money, family, domination, pleasure: WELCOME TO THE AGE OF VICE
A publishing phenomenon that has already broken records before it is published
New Delhi, winter, 3 a.m. A speeding Mercedes crashes onto the sidewalk, knocking down and killing five people. It is a millionaire’s vehicle, but behind the wheel they find only a shocked servant, unable to explain how or why he committed this crime. Nor can he foresee the dark drama that is about to unfold.
Between luxurious mansions, predatory businesses and political intrigues, three lives become dangerously intertwined: Sunny is the rich heir, a playboy who dreams of eclipsing his father; Ajay is his servant and man for everything; and Neda is the inquisitive journalist who is torn between her ethics and her desires. Faced with an overwhelming plot fueled by pleasure, greed, violence and revenge, these three characters find themselves tied together by bonds that can either redeem them or destroy them forever.
Part thriller, part family saga, The Age of Vice takes readers from the slums of Uttar Pradesh to the energetic metropolis of New Delhi, with an addictive plot of gangsters and lovers, false friends, secret romances and corruption. A binge of great literature to be enjoyed for pure pleasure.
