About the author
ANJALI JOSHI grew up in Mumbai. Her penchant for unexpected twists in her tales can be squarely blamed on the childhood summers spent in her ancestral home. A place full of secret corridors, cupboards as Gandhian scholars, historians, Journalisted books. A five-year stint as an air hostess, spent mostly staring down at passing continents and oceans from thirty thousand feet, taught her that the earth knows no borders. And so the mind humbly opened to accept all that the ether chose to download into it. There is a rightful place for both the profound and the profane. Anjali has over two decades of experience in filmmakingβas a designer, visualizer, editor, writer, producer and director. She is an international expert in 3D holography, clocking over four thousand shows. She currently lives with her two daughters in Hyderabad, India.
About the book
Raptor Rising by Anjali Joshi is about 225 pages but the story here is fast moving and UNPREDICTABLE.
The book opens with a shooting set of a movie and an actor is missing. There is no trace of him . But later on the police find out a video. An adult video and at the end that actor is killed. This videos are uploaded into dark web so tracing it is harder . A cop named Vikrant , comes into this field and arrests a woman. But another murder takes place. Then who’s the killer ? Who’s killing people ?
My views
Now, I want to appreciate author’s writing as well as level of imagination in creating such atmosphere where readers literally get goose bumps. Character development is something I must admire. And how can I not talk about the cover ? An eye catching cover is always a plus point !
This book is for every murder mystery thriller reader out there π
