Seven guests. One killer. Who is it? Hyderabad, India; 1895. Seven guests are invited by the Premier Minister to the opulent Faluknama Palace to witness the sale of a rare diamond. They do not know each other, but each is hoping to secure something important from the weekend. When their host fails to appear, Chief Inspector Soobramania – known as Soob – is asked to step in, and safeguard the near-priceless gem.

Chief Inspector Soobramania is called when three bodies are discovered in the space of twenty-four hours, with mutilations bearing an eerie resemblance to Jack the Ripper’s victims. Initial suspicion centres on an English Duke visiting Hyderabad and his friend, a powerful Deccani noble and the angry stepson of one of the dead. In the face of political pressure, Soob must ally with his rival in the British Residency Police, Inspector Wilberforce, to unearth the culprit.

From science and technology to business and education, curiosity is often taken for granted as an unquestioned good. And yet, few people can define curiosity. Curiosity Studies marshals scholars from more than a dozen fields not only to define curiosity but also to grapple with its ethics as well as its role in technological advancement and global citizenship.
