This is the age of vice, where money, pleasure and power are everything, and the ties that bind can also kill.

 

New Delhi, 3am: a speeding Mercedes jumps the kerb, and in an instant five people are dead. It's a rich man's car, but when the dust settles there is no rich man at all, only a shell-shocked servant who cannot explain this carnage.

 

Age of Vice is a novel propelled by the enormous wealth, startling corruption and bloody violence of the Wadia family - loved by some, loathed by others, feared by all. Among lavish estates, decadent parties, predatory business tactics and political manoeuvring, three lives become dangerously entwined. Ajay is the watchful servant, born into poverty, who rises through the Wadia ranks as a trusted fixer. Sunny is the playboy heir who dreams of escaping from and outshining his father, whatever the cost. And Neda is the inquiring journalist, caught between her morality and her desire. In a world fuelled by loss, pleasure, greed, yearning, violence and revenge, will these characters' connections become a path to escape, or to annihilation?
