A private detective, “DON” is someone with great insight and intelligence, who solves crimes and sees the worlds differently. He is well educated, fashionable, well to do and obviously successful. His mission is to solve crimes ‐ Crimes that are not of nation‐threatening proportions, but crimes that would otherwise remain unsolved inside closed files. He has no special affinity for the downtrodden and he is no messiah looking to help society at large. No matter who the victim is, it is an obsession for him to be at the case till the crime is solved. With pitfalls of predictability and the surprises springing out of the fallacies of human nature, our Private Detective believes –‘nothing is ever what it seems to be!’.
