A private island, a bottle of ridiculously expensive wine, a late-night party hosted by a glamorous diva. What is the ultimate in luxury to most is, for Reema Ray, all in a brutal day's work."
As a private detective in Calcutta she had impressed maverick security expert Shayak Gupta with her sleuthing skills, leading to a new job with his firm Titanium. Now in Mumbai, Reema is given the case of the year - the murder of Ashutosh Dhingre, former assistant to fading Bollywood superstar Kimaaya Kapoor.
The location of the crime is Kimaaya's private island. The suspects - her house guests and Kimaaya herself!
Reema learns of Kimaaya's prior relationship with Shayak and can't help but think it is a conflict of interest. Equally puzzling is Shayak's repeated absence and what of the continuing attraction simmering between her and her secretive boss?
Despite the state-of-the-art facilities at Titanium, Reema is soon back to her own devices - which sometimes involves cooking up something for a spot of culinary meditation - to get to the bottom of a crime that points to a deep and sinister plot. As the body count increases, can Reema crack the case before more blood is spilled?
