I am reading Dongri to Dubai by S. Hussain Zaidi.
Growing up in Mumbai in the 1980s/90s, I remember reading news stories about the Mumbai gang wars.
This book covers that in great detail and as such qualifies as a genuine history book.
And yet, it reads like a potboiler. It is essentially unputdownable.
10/10
Descent Into Madness by Vernon Frolick, story of a manhunt for a mad trapper in the remote British Columbia wilderness in the ‘80s. Absolutely insane
Band of Brothers, while not exactly a thriller style setup is well paced and magnificent.
Shake Hands With The Devil by Romeo Dallaire, eyewitness account of the Rwandan Genocide
The Last Stand by Nathaniel Philbrick, Custer and The Little Bighorn
The Tiger by John Vaillant, account of the hunt of a man eating tiger
Golden Spruce by John Valliant, the account of a killing of a tree
Devil In The Grove by Gilbert King
