Guru Deep Is Dead, Long Live Guru Deep: A Rucksack Universe Story

Not all that gleams is light.

"Guru Deep and I met in the receiving room at the penthouse of his hotel in London, four days after his father's murder.

"The death of Deep Inc. CEO Guru Deep has left the business world reeling. Within hours of the discovery of the bloody scene at a Kyoto, Japan, subway station by local police, word spread not only around the world but also into the sky, where the disemboweled corporate genius's twenty-five-year-old son was flying by private plane from Sydney to Kyoto. Famously kept out of the limelight throughout his childhood and young adulthood, the son has been a media mystery.

"Today, though, we bring you his first public interview."

BS Trotter, the world's greatest journalist, knows more than anyone that people avoid telling the truth. That never stops him from asking hard questions. In fact, it's why he asks them… even when interviewing a grieving son with secrets to hide.

After all, not all that gleams is light. But if anyone can dig the truth out of the shadows, it's BS Trotter.
