I'm really pleased to have a story in the new issue of Tasavvur. In "The Fairy Shop Op," a couple of babus from the Serious Frauds bureau investigate strange happenings at the Indiranagar BDA complex. Go have a read and tell me what you think! Ta!
The lineup of writers for this issue is incredibly talented, witty and masterful at making their words fly right off the page.
