Nylon Rope

Sujatha’s detective fiction created a huge impact on the Tamiliterature scene when his novels were first published. Witty, gripping and superbly written, his novels were even credited for widening readership in the state.

Nylon Rope—originally published in Tamil as Nylon Kayiru in 1968—is no exception.

Starring Ganesh, of the famous Ganesh–Vasanthawyer-cum-detective duo, Nylon Rope is a fast-paced, riveting tale. A man has been found murdered, and Ganesh must find the killer in order to save his friend’s sister—suspect number one in the eyes of the police.
