Red Bride's Noose by Alexandra Swistak
Camille Hayer should be preparing for a job interview—not ordered to pack her
bags for a cousin’s wedding in
rural Orissa. India is the last place on earth she would go to willingly; it’s
where her sister disappeared thirteen years ago.
On arrival, Camille’s bag is brutally snatched and her family is more concerned
about catching a train. No ticket, no passport, and adapting to third world
conditions is the least of her worries when a body is found in the sugar cane
stalks.
Without forensic specialists, Inspector Chandra Bhan accepts the monumental
task of finding a calculating killer. In the midst of a poisonous agenda,
Camille breaks the ban of silence about Samara and a gruesome truth leads her
to question everything she knew about her family.
Against this backdrop, Chandra grapples for a motive, but this is a crazy
marriage obsessed society and the murder of a stranger is hardly a worthy
curiosity. While she treads carefully through ancient rituals, scorching
daylight blurs into the night and nothing is as it seems. A second body is
discovered, sinister lies unfold and Camille’s father becomes prime
suspect.
Then Camille makes a connection, but is she too late to escape the red bride's
noose?
