BOOK REVIEW

When this cute little book package arrived, I was impressed and excited by the author's note for the readers and the exclusive letter that comes with the book. The story is a murder mystery that explores the concept of revenge. This 40-page short book with three interconnected stories is about seeking the killer and the reason behind them in each story.


I loved the ambition behind this book and the concept it explores. Considering this is the author's first venture into English after writing murder mysteries in Tamil for a long time, I really appreciate the effort he has put in. But there are way too many areas that need improvement. The editor, if any, should have worked on editing, grammar and structure a lot. From how the book was narrated, I understand it would have been much better in Tamil as I kept translating it in my head. I really wish the author had good support from his editing and publishing team. Nevertheless, I hope he grows from here on and works on his writing (and selects a good beta reading and editing team) to become one of the finest writers in the future. 

 

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Kalith is a young writer sharing his skill in creating stories about murder, particularly in Tamil. Now, he's embarking on a new journey by writing his first-ever revenge story involving a murder, and he's doing it in English. The idea to set the story in Ireland comes from his special bond with a friend in Dublin who has been encouraging him to explore writing in English.


MY REVIEW: 2/5

CHAPTER 1 - ALIZA AND AHMED

-
Image
Their eyes met for the second time in the day. Every time this happens, Aliza feels a ticklish sensation in her stomach. It's not that they have not been closer than just eye contact, but the jitters won't leave her alone. Her mother-in-law was busy scooping out the last few morsels of chicken from the bowl with a creaking noise that numbed Aliza's ears. Her father-in-law was lost in thoughts enjoying his chicken malai korma and tempered ghee rice.   ‘Aliza, can you get me some warm water?’ Aliza comes running with a jar of water to fulfil her new wife's duties, and Ahmed finds his moment just when Aliza is filling his tumbler and his parents are busy eating. He pokes her in the hip, which is faintly visible between her saree fold and her blouse. Aliza winces and moves behind quickly. She turns around to ensure no one has witnessed it and promptly returns to work, flashing a smile. Ahmed had to steal moments like these between daily activities because the house was alwa...

CHAPTER 4 - DISTANCE MATTERS

'Congratulations on your promotion and transfer. We are looking forward to your full commitment to us. Do get back to this letter at the earliest with your answer.' Read the crafted piece of paper. Ahmed's parents were delighted and jumping with joy. They were chanting 'Alhamdulillah' fervently while Aliza stood confused. She could not make anything of this news because Ahmed's promotion meant everything to her. But his transfer would only mean that Aliza must stay back with her in-laws while he would visit only during weekends. She would happily do so, too, if not for her unsupportive mother-in-law. Aliza wanted to cry, and her eyes brimmed with tears that the world looked like a smudged canvas laying still in front of her. She looked at Ahmed pleadingly and waited until 10 to ask him if he really wanted to go. Asking in front of her in-laws would only mean the end of her good days. Ahmed did not look up because he knew what his transfer meant for both of them....

CHAPTER 2 - THE BACKSTORY - ALIZA

-
Image
  Aliza is the middle child of her family, with two older siblings and two younger ones. She did not always get her parents' attention because the oldest or the youngest sibling often stole it. She was mostly brought up by her oldest sister, Razia, who made sure she bathed, ate, and went to school on time. After Razia's marriage, her next older sibling Fahim brought home his wife, who had sworn to taunt Aliza all her life. Her younger twin siblings Samir and Ameera were at school, and they often stayed outdoors playing. So Aliza grew up to be the one taking care of her siblings while also managing to thrive herself. After finishing high school, she wanted to join college because her friends were also planning to, and they said studying in college will help a lot in the future. She was also the captain of her school's volleyball team and was a tough player. Aliza thought she could pursue her ambitions after school if she managed to convince her father. But her relatives had ...
