About this book
Prey on the Prowl by BS Murthy is a gripping crime novel that weaves together mystery, romance, and tragedy in an intricate web of deception and murder. When a string of poisoning deaths strikes down a realtor, a police inspector, a criminal, and his accomplice, suspicion immediately falls on the obvious culprits—but nothing is as straightforward as it seems.
As detective Dhruva investigates, he finds himself entangled in the complicated lives of his suspects. Radha, a widow under scrutiny for her role in her husband's death, insinuates herself into his investigation, pointing fingers at Kavya, a woman caught between victim and accomplice. Yet Dhruva's instincts tell him something darker lurks beneath the surface. When the usual motives seem almost too convenient, he realizes a clever killer might be hiding in plain sight, using the obvious suspects as cover for a hidden agenda.
Murthy masterfully layers secrets, conflicting loyalties, and unexpected connections as Dhruva peels back each clue. The narrative explores how trauma and desperation can transform people, blending psychological depth with classic whodunit suspense. Perfect for listeners who enjoy complex mysteries with morally ambiguous characters and surprising twists, Prey on the Prowl challenges you to solve the puzzle before the final revelation.
