The story is written from the point of view of three characters - Dhruv, Anuradha and Sid and all the characters are very well described and developed and the readers can relate to them. The story has various twists and turns making it very gripping and the thrill is till the end keeping the reader engrossed. The title is very well justified. Overall, a nice, simple and a short read having elements of love and thrill.
