General Review
- The storyline is long and cannot be predicted at all. Though from the title, it’s clear that a woman is involved but that is not sufficient to guess the subplots. Well, talking about that woman who goes in the hiding is important for the overall success of the case. So, Inspector Ajay Shaktawat gets help from some other cop and hunts the woman in Pune. From there, the novel changes its course. It was looking a case of greed but it turned out to be a matter of revenge.
