Ishkapaner Tekka by Asim Pada Chakrabarty [Hardcover]

One evening, an elderly wealthy businessman Amuliyababu brought a request to investigate the enveloped letter full of mockery that had been calling detective Nilakantha Sen for some time. There was nothing written in the envelope of the letter, there was the ace card of Ishkapan. Nilakantha agreed to investigate the fake letter at the gentleman's request. After seeing the letters, Neelkantha is convinced that the letters are not fake at all, there is a secret message in them. Investigating the letter, Nilakantha learns about four like-minded friends and a beautiful woman who rose like a comet in the world of Assam state and India's national card forty years ago. Their rise to the world of cards is as sudden as their sudden endlessness. Amuliyababu was mysteriously killed while working in his home office on an evening of load-shedding in Calcutta while gathering news about the world of cards in Assam. The search for the fake letter turned into a murder investigation. Based on circumstantial evidence, the police arrested Amulibabu's son-in-law, who grew up in his house, on suspicion of murdering him. Neelkantha cannot agree with the police. How Nilakantha solves the murder mystery by tying together the torn threads of the lives of four young men and a woman who went missing many years ago in his own separate investigation, is the ace of Ishkapan's suffocatingly brilliant story.
