As a journalist on the crime beat, the author has spent long hours talking to those in uniform, those in the underworld and those in the grey zone � people who work as police informers. Much of what he has seen, heard and observed in over a decade of covering crime has found its way into print. But there�s a lot that�s spoken of in hushed tones, or buried in underworld lore. The underworld speaks its own language, and words are invented on the spur of the moment. A shooter is referred to as an �artist�, an informer is simply �zero dial�, Dubai is �Delhi�, while arrest is �get admitted�. Most of these are aimed at sending the police or adversaries on a wild goose chase. It�s a world that thrives on the spirit of enterprise, actively courts power and danger, and has conquered fear. The rules are straight and the ethics sacrosanct. The principles of �dhanda� apply equally here � risk, profit and competition are at the very core. An informer will think nothing of selling precious information on a rival if it can earn him extra bucks or goodwill from the police. ISBN - 9788179928509
