#BookReview : The Unprodigal by Manu Dhawan



It has been months since the only person he loved & cherished, his grandfather Aryaman, has died under mysterious circumstances, & Aryan has given his all to unearth the truth. Yet he seems to have fallen short, for the conspiracy he had gotten wind of is not only closer but bigger than what he had imagined. But in the darkest hour before dawn, in a hopeless place and amongst strangers, the truth awaits Aryan. He will have to make the longest journey of his life- both inside and out- for it. He will have to stitch together pieces of his early life- his struggles, loves, victories, regrets, faith & the values given to him by his grandfather- to fight against the mightiest.

The story is about Aryan trying to grieve and cope up with the loss of his beloved grandfather Aryaman but as he finds out that there’s more to the story than it seems he gets himself into a whirlwind of misadventures. In his quest to find the truth behind the death of his grandfather, Aryan has to face multiple hurdles in doing so. But as he gets more involved, he gets sucked into a grave conspiracy. Get this book to know whether will he be able to unravel the conspiracy or be another victim to it,
Thriller is becoming one of my favorite genres to read and when it is mixed with drama, it becomes even more interesting. The premise of the book is extremely interesting and the plot takes off very well, the story progresses in a linear manner with a little bumps here and there but still retains its sense of suspense. The language used is easy and hence makes it a breezy ready, the cover is okay as well. In totality, the book is surely an interesting read especially for people interested in suspense & drama.
