AMBITION’S CURSE (Indialog, Rs 195) by Kishore Pillai tells the story of a gruesome murder, the unravelling of its motive, followed by another violent death. Lorded over by an investigating officer with the unusual name of Ricky Dev, this is a whodunit that deserves to be given a chance. Although the quality of Pillai’s prose may not be shimmering, this is, nonetheless, a page turner of sorts.
