Bollywood Storm is a lyrical and mystical murder mystery, set in Bollywood style.
With a dash of Kill Bill, this novel will not disappoint those readers expecting action; it’s also a meditation on self, identity, ego, intimacy, sensuality, spirituality, privilege and loss; and it’s got five song and dance numbers in it, too.
The mazza of this story unfolds in two Books, spanning two continents.
Book II: Mumbai
Elanna Forsythe George's unpredictable mystical powers lead her to Mumbai, where she must attempt to work with her two, headstrong South Asian alter egos to infiltrate the Bollywood scene, unravel the serpentine Bhujangen cult that threatens the Mumbai filmi-industry, and expose the dark forces behind the deaths of renowned Bollywood director Rajesh Sharma, and more than half of his illegitimate children.
Praise for Bollywood Storm, Book I:
N.K.Johel not only introduces Bollywood to new readers, she does it with flare!”
Mani Amar*, Director, Producer, Filmmaker. Winner: The New York Sikh International Film Festival Award, Best Documentary*
“It’s a book about mysticism, possessing vast imagination, delivered with an incredible amount of skill."
Sheri-d Wilson*, Poet & Educator. Winner: The USA Heavyweight Title for Poetry, CBC Arts Top Ten Poets in Canada.*
Praise for Book II, Mumbai:
“N. K. Johel delivers an even more masterful writing performance in Book II . . . Where does it all end in this wildly imaginative mystery? This second book has turned into Ellery Queen meets Stephen King – and it's all utterly believable, so skilled is the author at portraying the deep dilemma in which Elanna finds herself . . . [a]nd, again, the out-of-body sequences are superb.”
Publisher’s Daily Reviews
Bollywood Storm, Book II is nothing less than amazing. I personally enjoyed how different the two books were, and I especially liked the shifting of perspectives.
