The Krishna Key

Ashwin Sanghi
- Rating:
- Book Type:
- Description: Five thousand years ago, a magical being called Krishna came to earth, performing countless divine miracles for the good of mankind. Humanity was assured that he would return in a new avatar when the world needed him most, in the eventual Dark Age, Kaliyug. In modern times, a poor boy grows up believing he is that final avatar. However, the boy is a serial killer. In this heart-stopping tale, the appearance of a murderer executing gruesome and brilliantly devised schemes in the name of God hints at a sinister conspiracy to reveal an ancient secret-Krishna's priceless legacy to mankind. From the submerged remains of Dwarka and the mysterious lingam of Somnath to the icy heights of Mount Kailash, from the sand-washed ruins of Kalibangan to a Vrindavan temple destroyed by Aurangzeb, historian Ravi Mohan Saini must undertake a perilous quest to prevent a grave miscarriage of justice and locate Krishna's most coveted possession. Seamlessly blending fact and fiction, master storyteller Ashwin Sanghi's The Krishna Key is a fitting addition to the Bharat Collection, reviving the ancient lore of the Blue God and embedding it within an unnerving narrative of conspiracy and crime set in modern India.

Description:
एक थी शीना बोरा : सनसनीखेज़ क़त्ल की प्रामाणिक पड़ताल
लालच, झूठ और महत्त्वाकांक्षा की भेंट चढ़े रिश्तों की कहानी है—शीना बोरा कांड। इस किताब में इस बेहद चर्चित हत्याकांड के अब तक हुए खुलासों को एक क्रम के साथ प्रस्तुत किया गया है ताकि पाठक शीना बोरा नाम की युवती की उसकी अपनी ही माँ द्वारा की गई सुनियोजित हत्या के केस के पीछे की पूरी कहानी को ठीक-ठीक समझ सके।
बदलाव के एक तेज़ दौर से गुज़र रहे पारिवारिक सम्बन्धों का एक जटिल जाल भी इस घटना का बड़ा पहलू रहा है। उसका ख़ाका भी यह किताब, बिना जजमेंटल हुए, हमारे सामने रखती है। निजी ई-मेल्स और फ़ोन-वार्ताओं को भी लेखक ने बिना ज़्यादा काट-छाँट के यहाँ रखा है, जिनसे भावनाओं और तेज रफ़्तार महानगरीय जीवन की आर्थिक-सामाजिक पेचीदगियों की एक नाटकीय तस्वीर सामने आती है।
यह मामला अभी भी कोर्ट के विचाराधीन है; इस पुस्तक का उद्देश्य पाठकों को सिर्फ़ उन तथ्यों से अवगत कराना है जो अभी तक सामने आए हैं और जिनका नि:सन्देह एक समाजशास्त्रीय महत्त्व भी है।
यह किताब उसी पत्रकार की लेखनी से सम्भव हुई है जिसने इस कांड को हर स्तर पर कवर किया है।
