India, 1991 to 2026. In 1993 the home secretary dictated a report, in three copies, in which his security chiefs warned of crime syndicates grown too big to be tackled. This book follows what came next: a fruit seller who printed the government's stamp paper on the government's machines; iron ore that left Bellary by the shipload; a Bengal deposit scheme that bought newspapers with villagers' savings; a gang leader giving orders, investigators say, from a cell; a bank's missing thousands of crores and a betting app's Dubai villas. Covers Abdul Karim Telgi and the stamp-paper network, Gali Janardhana Reddy and the Obulapuram Mining Company, Sudipta Sen and the Saradha Group, Lawrence Bishnoi and his gang, Nirav Modi and Punjab National Bank, and Sourabh Chandrakar and Mahadev Online Book.
