About this book

Amisha Roy suffers from the horrifying nightmares depicting her death by a serial killer who is out loose in the city. Her mental condition does not support her in her struggles with her mind. Gaurav and Nishant Kabir, the investigating officers, find three juvenile bodies and evidently more to come. They find no impediments in the murders, but they find a common link; Jennet. Due to some clash of sentiments among the two brothers, Nishant decides to solve the case unaided. He battles between his gut and the facts of the case which somehow leads him to the killer. When he reveals the mystery, he comes to know that Amisha Roy is in danger! Will Nishant be able to save Amisha? Will he be able to confront the killer alone?
