Book description
Tech millionaires and newly minted sleuths Aniruddha Jha and Joyita Roy-Ronny & Jo-begin a life of excitement and danger as they square off against adversaries in Washington, D.C.'s Indian community. Lean and loose-limbed, with quiet confidence and an easy laugh, fifty-year-old Ronny's a prolific home chef. He sold his Cloud startup company in 2016 and now mentors tech companies and plays the keyboard for a local band. Logical and methodical, Ronny's the reluctant strategist dragged by Jo into investigations. Arresting-looking, with shoulder-length hair and a direct gaze, fifty-year-old Jo advocates sustainable building design, kickboxes regularly and runs forty miles every week. The power bank driving the duo's sleuthing, she's always ready to get behind the wheel of their trusty old Prius to hunt down killers and crooks in D.C.'s desi community. Ronny & Jo are aided by ethical hacker Ben; cabbie Naz; building concierge Santana; D.C. insider Peyton; and Loki, guru of all things arcane, and known in polite circles as Professor Lokanathan. Detective Nicole Oduwole of the Arlington PD brings the authority of the police into play. In Crimson Fall, a search for a missing 26-year-old sends Ronny & Jo into the underbelly of IT businesses in the Washington, D.C. area and the private lives of vulnerable Indian tech workers. With deception and lies at every turn, there's more than one disturbing reason for the young man's disappearance, and the stakes are raised with a deadly encounter on the Capital Beltway. Someone is out to terminate Ronny and Jo's search.
