The story starts at a slow pace and it takes a bit of time to connect the dots but later it’s a roller coaster ride. It’s a bit slow-paced story with the gripping writing style of the author.

I loved the characters developed by the author with lots of drama. I loved Nalini’s character the most. Of course, Pranav’s character was good too. The way the story was taking place, the investigation took place is amazing to read.

I loved the last few chapters the most. With each chapter, the dots connected, unfolding the mystery. The unpredictable climax makes it more fascinating.

Overall, it’s a gripping read filled with layers of Mystery that you will enjoy.

Summary

Yogesh Moolchandani, a disreputable builder, is dead. All the signs say suicide but there was nothing wrong with his life. He had just cracked a deal and things were looking hale and hearty for him. He had recently even purchased an imported Volkswagen Jetta. CCTV footage from the night of his death shows him crashing into a toll booth at a speed of 180 km per hour on the Bandra-Worli Sea Link. The dealer he had purchased his car from had received five missed calls from him just five minutes prior to the time of the alleged crash.

On the same night, in another part of town, Pranav Paleja, a criminal lawyer who works at the law chamber-
Mangesh & Mangharam, tries his best to extricate his client-a troublesome drunk-from the clutches of the police. Although an upholder of the law himself, Paleja is pathologically incapable of following it in his day-to-day personal life. Since Pranav Paleja was settling a dispute with the man concerned only moments before the crash, the police land up at his doorstep.

As the authorities try to find out why Yogesh was calling his car dealer frantically, the plot begins to thicken.
Who, or rather what, killed Yogesh Moolchandani?
