Overview

The Rupa Book Of Great Escape Stories

Ruskin Bond brings to the comfort and safety of your armchair collection of inspiring and hair-raising stories of courage and wits, from dangerous and exotic locales all over the world.

The stories in this collection are mostly non-fictional, first-person accounts all the more gripping for their direct narrative style and terse description. We travel through different yet equally exciting periods in history, from Casanova’s goal, to the erstwhile French colonies in North Africa; from the horrific battlefields of the First World War, to Malekula in the south Pacific. Besides being compelling accounts of ‘famous escapes’, this anthology provides a peek into fascinating histories, geographies and cultures, and urges you to be, as Ruskin Bond says, ‘a global traveller’.

The Great Book Of Great Crime Stories

Danger lurks between these covers… Dangerous men and women who will stop at nothing, not even murder, to gain their ends. Unlikely killers, some of them. They wouldn’t hurt a fly…but wouldn’t hesitate to send their wives, husbands or grandmother to the grave if they became inconvenient!

Is there a perfect murder? Read and find out for yourself. These are smart killers, all of them. And there are some surprise endings in store for you, in this tenth Rupa anthology compiled by Ruskin Bond from his treasury of the cream of crime fiction.
