520 _aThere is nothing more tragic than the loss of face - not even the loss of life. Radhi Zaveri returns home to Mumbai's posh Temple Hill in search of a salve for her broken heart. What she finds instead is a terrible tragedy. Her best friend Sanjana, who is expecting her first child, has just lost her father, Kirti Kadakia, to suicide. Cantankerous and pigheaded, Kirti has never walked away from a fight; yet, just hours after telling Sanjana that he couldn't wait to hold his grandchild in his arms, he kills himself. Something seems off to Radhi. Why is their young maid so terrified? What is their meddlesome neighbor hiding? Who was that second cup of tea for-the one they found in his study? As Radhi helps Sanjana look for answers, she realizes that Kadakia's own family knows much more than they are letting on, and more than one life might hang in the balance. A whodunit like no other, The Death of Kirti Kadakia unearths the secrets and lies lurking beneath the diamond-studded satsangs and the lavishly catered 'pure-veg' brunches, and exposes the dual lives we often live.
