I have penned my first book titled `To The Last Bullet' by Vinita Kamte with Vinita Deshmukh. I have written it in first person account of Vinita Kamte. She is the wife of Ashok Kamte, one of the most outstanding police officers of India, who died in the Mumbai Terror attack of 26/11 last year. The book is a gripping story of his chequered and inspiring life and provides shocking details of circumstances that led to his death. She has invoked the Right To Information Act to procure vital Call Log records which reveal shocking details of the final hours of her husband Ashok Kamte in which the other two equally brilliant officers, Hemant Karkare and Vijay Salaskar were killed. The book is available online: http://www.a1books.co.in/homepage.do

Vinita, Congratulations!!
I read so in Gulf News yesterday - Henry asked me to check on the papers.
'Slain Officer's Wife releases Hard-Hitting Book'
I have preserved the newspaper cutting as well!
Congratulations Vinita. This must have been a great experience. My humble suggestion is that you can also come up with a Marathi and Hindi translation of this book.
Congratulations Udaya... Very proud of you. You had sent me a mail stating that you would be sending across a copy. Please do not do so as I would like to buy a copy.
Tks Faiyaz, Arun and Vimal. The book launch of the Marathi edition is on December 14th in Pune, Arun. Actually we were to release it simultaneously but could not cope up. Ok Vimal, I shall respect what u say - in Mumbai it is available Strand book Stall, Fort, Crosswords and Airport. Yes it has been a breathless experience as I did it in 4 months flat. My journalist friends are launching the book in Delhi on Dec 4, so going there. Tks for all your good wishes - it's great to share my joy wih my school friends. The bookhas evoked curiosity alright but don't know how it will do but for me it has been a humbling experience. tks once again for all the good wishes
