About this listen

At 10.20 p.m. on 21 May 1991, a young woman bowed before Rajiv Gandhi at an election rally in Sriperumbudur, 42 km north of Chennai. And then there was an explosion.

This book is the definitive account of one of the most controversial crimes in contemporary India. It unravels the complex plot hatched by the LTTE (Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam) to ensure that Rajiv Gandhi did not return to power in the 1991 general elections.

Ninety Days provides a blow-by-blow account of how the Special Investigation Team of the CBI cracked the assassination plot, identified the assassins and chased the mastermind, Sivarasan, to his final hideout. The deaths from cyanide consumption of the members of the hit squad left several unanswered questions in their wake, which this book explores.

It was really an informative investigation full of mysteries and fallout. Really the SIT could not get the desired outcome

This is an audio book I thoroughly enjoyed. Packed with deep details, inside information and interesting details for the hunt for the killers, each episode left me wanting to hear more. The narration is very good (despite some Tamil words or areas being pronounced not so well). Anirudhya's resolve and grit to follow the hunt to the finish is absolutely amazing and a delight to know.

Captivating...reads like an absolute thriller!

Absolute chaos with bureaucracy. What’s the point in having NSG, if they are not given authority to act when it matters most.

Very good writing style and reading. I really don't need to listen to another book on the subject of Rajiv Gandhi's assassination. It is heartbreaking to hear about India's security system and the missing link between them. It is very unfortunate that a few petty individuals challenge the sovereignty of India and what is even more terrible is that the government forgives these criminals. It is true that many questions remain unanswered in the mind after this book.

Thanks for this book
