Dicey Step

By: Nalini Ranjan Ray

“It’s either your daughter or me,” Anju too fumed. That angry reaction of hers stirred up a hornet’s nest. In a fit of fury, Ankush hurriedly applied the brake of the car which caused a crackling sound. It attracted the attention of nearby pedestrians. It happened on the ring road near Ashram Chowk, South-East Delhi. He was in such intense rage that he dragged Mani out of the rear seat, dropped her on the roadside and quickly moved ahead without thinking anything or looking back. The little girl, Mani, did not know what to do and started crying. Ankush, the protagonist, is a married man with a sober wife, Anita, and a beautiful girl child, Mani. But his unfortunate estranged wife, Anita, lives elsewhere. Anju is his youthful maid-turned-second-wife. Why did Ankush abandon his own daughter on the roadside to fend for herself? Did he force his real wife, Anita, to leave his house? The story gets murkier as it progresses where lust, betrayal, separation, serious illness, hate and true love come into play.

The Lu Quartet

Super Sleuths and Other Stories

By: Nalini Das

‘We knew we had to solve the mystery somehow!’ The world of Kalu, Malu, Bulu and Tulu is always buzzing with mysteries, big and small. And that works just fine, because the four young ‘detectives’ are raring to solve them. Wherever the four clever friends happen to be—at their school hostel, next door at the Zamindar Mansion, or away on holiday in Mandu or Cherrapunji—they have a way of smelling out a mystery and keeping their nerve in the face of daunting dangers and terrifying threats to find what lies at the bottom of it. Join the Lu Quartet on their adventures in caves and ravines, secret chambers and dark mango groves, and see if you can unravel the twists and turns of the whodunits just as they do. These thirteen classic stories by Nalini Das originally appeared in the reputed Bengali magazine Sandesh and have been translated for the first time into English by leading children’s writer Swapna Dutta. PLUS! Book Mine Gems: 32 extra-special pages: Know more about the author, her work and her times. Plus things to think about and to do.
