Bait: Four Stories Book

"These days Jagat demands seven rupees per corpse. What, after all, is the value of a rupee today? The value of money, the price of human lives, both so cheap these days."

I have read only the first short story "Fisherman". We are introduced to the character of Jagat Sha, who used to be a fisherman, but these days he is employed by the police to dive deep into the waters, to lift corpses up from the murky depths. Those corpses always found their way into the waters. The police quickly wrap these incidents as a case of drowning. However, there is something sinister behind all these recurrences. Jagat finds out in the end.

I found the translation to be quite good, except for the dialogues, which need to include who said it. Regardless of these minor errors, the story will keep you engaged till the end.
