About the book
A rousing tale of celebrity, sex and, of course, scandal Not only is Ricky Kumar, handsome hunk and mama’s boy, being prepared for his launch as a Bollywood star, he has also just managed to score with the love of his life. But things begin to go horribly wrong when London-born playboy and restaurant tycoon Gautam Goyal checks into a drug rehab facility in Mumbai. A case of mistaken identity looks like it will lose Ricky everything he has been poised to achieve and pits the two against each other in a struggle played out in the harsh glare of the media spotlight. A wicked, sharply observed satire of Bollywood, high society shenanigans and our obsession with celebrity, Scandal Point is an unputdownable novel, at once hilarious and thought-provoking.
