    If you enjoyed Sujata Massey's Widows of Malabar Hills, you'll love Roopa's new whodunit!

    In the gripping narrative of the Jasmine Murders, readers are introduced to the formidable husband-wife detective team of Jayan, a police chief struggling to maintain order in a lawless town, and Uma, whose sharp intuition is crucial when a severed head—jasmine still woven into its braid—unexpectedly appears at their home. As crime escalates, they strive to restore peace in a community rife with communal tension and the shadows of a corrupt predecessor. With a historic cyclone threatening Manamadurai, Uma must cleverly navigate a covert network of local gossip to assist her husband in unraveling a web of hidden secrets and simmering violence.

    About The Raconteur

    Roopa Unnikrishnan is an award-winning author, Rhodes Scholar, Arjuna Award recipient, and Commonwealth Games gold medalist in rifle shooting. After years spent guiding global companies through high-stakes strategy and innovation challenges, she now channels that same curiosity into creative writing, crafting intriguing whodunits. Her nonfiction debut, The Career Catapult, won the Independent Press Award, but with The Jasmine Murders, Roopa joyfully returns to the storytelling instincts that once made her Oxford thesis 'too entertaining'. Her essays on strategy and creativity have appeared in Knowledge@Wharton and the Economic Times, showcasing her versatility as an author. Roopa lives in New York City with her professor husband, their beagle Tara, and an ever-growing stash of notebooks filled with clues, red herrings, and suspicious characters. Her twins, Durga and Krishna, have launched into the world—though they still occasionally serve as sounding boards for particularly devious plots.
