Review:

The Rape trial by Bidisha Ghosal speaks about a reality that goes on in the world in the form of a fiction story. How the rapist who is the family members of Politicians or Actors or other bigger prominent members of the society are let go off as they pay money to the media and other people supporting the victim to keep silent. .
This story is about a Rapist Rahul Satyabhagi who had raped Avni Rambha 8 years back and had been declared innocent by the court because Avni Rambha and their family didn’t have enough evidence to prove also whichever they had were muted out since Rahul Satyabhagi had power in his hands.
Rhea, Hitiashi and Amruta are also the main protagonists of this story and they had been silenced down. What happens next? Will she get justice?.

I liked The storyline of the book.
The plot of the story is good and needs to be out in the society as to how a woman victim is always silenced because they aren’t powerful enough or the sole reason is that they are born as a woman in the society highly powered as male-dominated.

I liked the narration of the story. The way the author narrated the emotions is commendable.
The language of the author is pretty good and makes a reader appreciate the writing style and the narration. The pace is a bit slow in the initial chapters but later on, the book takes up the pace and makes it more interesting.
The writing style of the author is simple and relatable. The cover of the book is very apt as per the story that has been entwined within.
Overall, a wonderful book.
