Review:

Prime Time Crime is story about Ritika- A journalist and Gangster A.T.  Both are attracted towards each other. Is it love or the plan is something else? Do find out.

First of all I liked the title of the book. The cover is good, but could be much better. The way the book stared was astounding. I was completely connected to the book from the very first page. The author has smartly described the underworld scenarios. Each and every chapter is well organised, crisp and interesting. Such books are rare from Indian Authors. The plot of the book is amazing, well structured with lots of twists and turns.  The narration of the book is amazing. The dialogues, the tips for journalists are well conveyed. The characters of the book is something I loved. They are well developed. I loved Ritika’s Character. How she wanted to be different from others. and A.t’s character was well created. Rough, Smart, and intelligent. Not only their but each character was well described and Was important in their own way.The language used by the author is simple, crisp, and connecting. One can easily connect with the story and thinks what will happen next. It is a balanced story. It has everything perfect, from twist and turns, to maintaining that suspense element.the flow of the book is crisp and smooth. The author had added details of each and every scene very well. The pace of the book is good. not too fast, not too slow.  The chemistry between Ritika and A.T was awesome. The way the mind games happen was something I loved. How each and every step they took, with caution, intelligence and power.
