Squirrels & Rats - Synopsis

A word of advice or a double bluff - whichever way you want to look at it; though most of the suspense novels have a mystery, they need not have one. It could well be that you know who did what and why, but the suspense might be in the manner it all unfolds for you.

Here is my impression of the cover and the synopsis of Squirrels and Rats:

Why should an accidental death of a financially successful wealth manager necessarily be treated as suspicious?

What if, the man in question is insured for an enormous amount? And, the inheritance that runs into a few million dollars has only one beneficiary, who is out of the country at the time of the accident.

What if, the witness to the will and insurances is an upcoming gorgeous model who is a common friend to the man and his wife?

What if, the financial whiz kid anticipated losses in his business that led him down the dire strait?

What if, it's only an accident?

An accidental death, a huge inheritance, an over suspicious police inspector and an inquiry that goes cold – a journey that starts in Mumbai, moves to London and continues to…

Can this case be closed?
