Half A Shadow  (English, Paperback, Anurag Shourie)

Three deaths - a beautiful bride, a young businessman, and a famous doctor. Crime arises from its protracted slumber in Udaipur, and the City of Lakes finally sheds its veil of tranquility. Trapped in the heart of the mayhem, is Dr. Aditya Deshmukh,  a quintessential loser. In order to redeem himself and wrench his soul free of the guilt  of a murder most foul, he has to find the missing links between  Abraham and Sarasvati, Abhimanyu and Sumitra, Yasser Arafat   and Vladimir Putin. The body count continues to rise as Aditya gropes  in the  darkness. Hunted by an enemy he cant see, devoured by a love he cant consummate, and guided by a friend he cant trust, he is caught up in a race against time where he cant afford to be the runner-up..
