Blood On Kolkata: City of Shadows: 20 Crimes That Shook Kolkata (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798271386756)

By Aritra Dutta

City of Shadows takes you deep into the dark heart of Kolkata - a city of art, politics, and passion, but also of betrayal, blood, and buried secrets.

Through thirty real-life cases, Aritra Dutta revisits some of Bengal's most shocking crimes - from the political massacres of the 1970s to modern-day scandals that shook the nation. Each story uncovers not only the act itself but the human fears, ambitions, and failures behind it.

From the haunting silence of the Robinson Street mystery to the chaos of the Bowbazar blast, these pages trace how violence and survival coexist in the same city - sometimes on the same street.

Written with care and authenticity, City of Shadows is not a tabloid retelling, but a journey through truth and memory. It reminds us that every crime leaves behind more than victims or suspects - it leaves behind stories, and a city that never forgets.
