Ahmad to celebrate the publication of his new novel, THE LAST TAXI RIDE! Ex-Indian Army Captain, Ranjit Singh is now working as a cab driver on the hard streets of New York City. He thinks his luck has changed when he picks up the beautiful Bollwood film actress Shabana Shah, but the next day she is found dead in her apartment. His prints are all over a statue of the elephant god Ganesh used to grotesquely smash the actress’s face. With a looming Grand Jury trial, Ranjit must rely on his fellow misfits to find the real murderer: Leela, an Indo-Guyanese nightclub hostess, a gaggle of South Asian taxi drivers, and even a shady importer of human hair. As Ranjit’s investigation unearths Shabana Shah’s hidden past, and her connection to a shadowy Mumbai ganglord, he must marshal all his resources just to survive.
