A young teenager named Maya died under mysteriously but the majority of the town accepted the reason to be that of a suicide. Many people believed otherwise despite Maya’s family insisting she was troubled and that’s why she took her own life….
This novel follows, Munna who briefly had a friendship with Maya for a few years before her passing. She always felt in her heart that there was more to the story. Maya begins haunting Maya’s dreams and coincidentally an anonymous letter shows up soon after questioning the death and implying it was in fact a murder.
Munna takes it upon herself to try to solve this murder and the mystery begins to unfold of a tale of “who dunnit” where literally a dozen people could be responsible. What would one person to do to keep the secrets of their family safe all while pinning the blame on someone they’ve spent years of their life despising? This person worked hard to find the ultimate way out of their own circumstances.
I found this to be a very enjoyable read and definitely gave off an old school murder mystery vibe. I also like that it touched on the fact that Munna was a minority in town and that she never thought her opinions about anything mattered, much less those about a possible murder. It in a way is a story of not only finding justice but finding herself in her own unique way at the same time.
