What happens when Mr. Baig, a wealthy and entitled tourist expectant of seeing dozens of tigers on his first ever visit to an Indian forest, finds his safari driver and guide struggling to show him even one? Taken for a Ride, a work in the unusual genre of wildlife fiction, tells a story of disparity, subjugation, and of collateral losses and tragic dichotomies, as it all unfolds over a single safari, derailing the course of several lives, not all of which are human.
