| Book Subtitle | The True Story Of How Bihar's Most Dangerous Criminal Was Caught |
| Book Description | Bihar Diaries narrates the thrilling account of how Amit Lodha arrested Vijay Samrat, one of Bihar's most feared ganglords, notorious for extortion, kidnapping and the massacre of scores of people. The book follows the adrenaline-fuelled chase that took place across three states during Amit's tenure as superintendent of police of Shekhpura, a sleepy mofussil town in Bihar. How does Amit navigate between his many professional challenges and conquer his demons? What does he do when the ganglord comes after his family? Bihar Diaries captures vividly the battle of nerves between a dreaded outlaw and a young, urbane IPS officer. |
| Editorial Review | A gripping cat-and-mouse tale. Visceral and engaging, this is a real-life cop drama you won't put down! (Emraan Hashmi) It's more than just a thrilling cop story. Best read at one go. (Ronnie Screwvala) India has had very few tales of valour and heroism that are both real and inspirational. Bihar Diaries is one such tale about a top cop who takes his work seriously and the cause of national service even more so. The book is anecdotal to the point of being refreshing and leaves the reader with insights that only someone at the front lines can capture. Amit's style of writing and the way he weaves the storyline reminds one of those fine thriller writers who can leave you at the edge of your bed whilst you savour their tale (Suhel Seth) |
