Editorial Reviews
“The Patient Assassin mixes Tom Ripley’s con-man-for-all-seasons versatility with Edmond Dantès’s persistence…Engaging reading.” —Wall Street Journal
“A revealing look at the brutality and oppression of British rule and how it seeded the desire for retribution in the hearts of so many Indians…Anand does a stellar job of sketching Singh’s trajectory from orphanage to hangman’s noose and from obscurity into the pantheon of Indian heroes…Compelling, vivid prose.” —New York Times Book Review
“Briskly plotted, scrupulously even-handed and altogether riveting.” —Daily Mail (London)
