Synopsis: Aditya and Meher are a young couple with a happy marriage, devoted families, and partially-bearable jobs between them. At least, that is what Meher believes, until one morning, she wakes up inside a cloud of doubt to realise Aditya has gone missing without a trace or warning.
Aside from the fear and frustration, doubt and paranoia, exasperation and rage, Meher feels isolated amongst friends and family, who she believes, hold her guilty of his disappearance. She resorts to unusual means to find her answers.
After months of relentless effort, is Meher successful? Does she find the right approach to reach him? Is she right in feeling abandoned, and not just by Aditya? Is there someone close who is trying to sabotage her life? Is she the reason behind her own misery? Is her husband in trouble or has he simply opted out of their marriage? Were they ever happily married? Who can she trust?
Get on the passenger seat with Meher to find out how much pressure she can take before the lines blur between imagination and reality. Talking about reality, how much do we really know about the people we share our lives with? Could they walk out on you while you sleep? A few months ago, Meher would have laughed at this question too.
Review: Overall, I thought this book was pretty good! I felt the story was engaging and the characters were well developed. I also felt that the writing was really well done. Overall, I really enjoyed this cozy read.
However, I do feel like the story was really predictable for my tastes even with all the twists. I also felt that the pacing was a bit off. It went fast and then really slow and back again.
Verdict: If this is your type of book you’ll really enjoy this.
