Manorama Six feet Under

A homage to the noir genre, 'Manorama Six feet Under' is about an amateur detective in a small town who finds himself trapped in a web of lies, deceit and murder. SV is a government engineer but his real ambition has been writing detective fiction. Unfortunately, his maiden attempt, a novel called 'Manorama', sank without a trace and he has been reduced to writing for cheap pulp magazines.

Stifled by the dreariness of a small town existence and frustrated by his failure, SV's life takes an interesting turn when the wife of a powerful local politician arrives at his doorstep with an irresistible offer for SV - to play a real life detective. All he has to do is spy on her husband. Tempted by the opportunity to redeem his self worth, SV accepts. Upon completion of the assignment, things take a turn when SV discovers that the woman who appointed him for the job is not who she claims to be. The situation gets further complicated when she is killed in a mysterious accident. Sensing foul play, SV starts investigating her death only to discover that nothing is what it seems to be and that redemption doesn't come easy.
