A Killer in the Family — Amin Ahmad
An intoxicating drama set in the world of New York City's elite, A Killer in the Family asks: What happens when you marry into a family that keeps secrets?
It's time for Ali, a good-natured Mumbai party-boy, to grow up and settle down. It turns out that there is a perfect mate for him: Maryam, the daughter of Abbas Khan, a New York real estate tycoon. She's pretty, demure and respectable, unlike her sister, Farhan, a sexy, rebellious divorcee.
After an arranged marriage, Ali moves to New York and enjoys the privileges of being an honorary Khan: private helicopters, supertall skyscrapers, and a Gatsbyesque estate in the Hamptons. But soon rumors begin to surface about Abbas Khan -- accusations of corruption and hidden affairs -- and Farhan hints that an even worse secret underlies Abbas's success. All of this leads Ali to wonder if he should believe Farhan or his wife, who insists that the insinuations are unfounded.
To uncover the truth, Ali launches his own investigation, which takes him deep into Abbas's past. As he closes in on the truth, Ali must decide: Can he remain part of the Khan family, and pay the moral price demanded by unimaginable wealth and power?
Told in an electric and unforgettable voice, A Killer in the Family explores the dark side of the American dream. It will have you questioning the motives of each Khan family member right until the very end.
