Description : Five years ago, Geeta lost her no-good husband. As in: She actually lost him-he walked out on her and she has no idea where he is. But in her remote village in India, rumour has it that Geeta killed him. And it's a rumour that just won't die. As it happens, being known as a "self-made" widow comes with some perks. No one messes with Geeta, harasses her, or tries to control (ahem, marry) her. It's even been good for business: No one dares to not buy her jewellery. Freedom must look good on Geeta, because now other women are asking for her "expertise", making her an unwitting consultant for husband disposal. And not all of them are asking nicely. With Geeta's dangerous reputation becoming a double-edged sword, she has to find a way to protect the life she's built-but even the bestlaid plans of would-be widows tend to go awry. What happens next sets in motion a chain of events that will change everything, not just for Geeta but for all the women in the village. Filled with clever criminals, second chances, and wry and witty women, Parini Shroff's The Bandit Queens is a razor-sharp debut of humour and heart that readers won't soon forget. +++++ "A radically feel-good story about the murder of no-good husbands by a cast of unsinkable women." - The New York Times
