“Simultaneously chilling and darkly witty, 'Indira's Daughters' charts one Western journalist's constantly changing perception of the enigma that is India. Destro manages to merge the febrile and paranoid backdrop of the nation's main players with the vibrancy and pathos of day to day poverty, with a skill that is both exquisite and masterful.”  

- Ramon Tikaram, actor, Pennyworth, Kaos, and Brassic.

“Ron Destro’s mastery of language is apparent from the very first chapter and his eye for detail is unparalleled. A page turner and an insightful and nuanced look at a turbulent time in India. One of those books you want to read again and again. Delightful, insightful and thoroughly enjoyable!” 

- Erick Avari, The Mummy, Mr Deeds, Stargate, The Chosen.

“I enjoyed it immensely. It’s a vivid multi-stranded historical thriller steeped in custom, spirituality, tradition and corruption. It evocatively captures India and the ongoing identity struggles between East and West. The American protagonist is believably flawed; arrogant but deeply likable, and the tragedies that unfold around him are unexpected and bleak. It is a timely reminder of the power of politics and industry and the fight that the working person still has to endure in order to survive against the insurmountable monster of capitalist greed.”  

- Marc Elliott, actor, The Father and the Assassin, The National Theatre.

“An evocative and exciting read.”
