About the book: 2016 / In the center of the famous TAJ MAHAL mausoleum, the body of the producer of the film of the same name was found, which should become the first joint blockbuster of Bollywood and Hollywood. The newspapers are trumpeting that this is not just a murder, but a ritual sacrifice - the heart of the deceased is cut out. The day before, Buckingham Palace was attacked in London, from where a unique heart-shaped Taj Mahal diamond worth 200 million pounds was stolen. All traces lead to India, and former British police special agent Jane McGregor goes “undercover” to Agra to find the killers and unravel the ancient mystery. She does not yet know how risky this business will be, and what dangers await her behind the scenes of Bollywood, in the terrible slums of Mumbai and the “city of the dead” of Varanasi. She has no idea yet what sinister forces are involved in the hunt for the priceless diamond, and what kind of sentence has been passed on the famous Taj Mahal, which is called the “eighth wonder of the world” and “a monument to immortal love.” She will have to learn from her own bitter experience how dark and destructive passion can be and that the bloody rituals of cruel gods are not a fairy tale at all. Love has already broken Jane’s heart once - in the literal sense of the word! – but she is again ready to risk her life so that the Light of eternal love, the Light of the Taj Mahal, overcomes the love obsession of the merciless goddess Kali!
