PHOENIX  (English, Paperback, Mandira Mazumder)

My Romantic Thriller Novel, PHOENIX, is a multi-layered and multi-dimensional book that surpasses the genre boundary. It begins with a small-town girl's life journey in a conventional society where "love laws" are imposed on a girl child. Yet, the free-spirited Latha grows up to be an independent adolescent. Her timeless love story with Kiyash snowballs into a dark crime book only because, being modern engineers in the making, they broke the love rules secretly. When chained within the confines of her house and emotionally blackmailed, Latha elopes at high risk with her lover. The Patriarch of the family unleashes fear and panic by deploying cops and anti-socials to hunt them down. The dark mood becomes dismal when the father, tracks them down. Fear stalks the couple's blissful married life. Latha fights back with the help of the law and shows her resilience. The family kidnaps their happily married girl. All hell breaks loose and the girl's dreams are razed to the ground. The trajectory of the story turns into a legal thriller of crime & suspense. Latha rises like a phoenix from her ashes. Yet, will this woman's epic battle against her politically powerful & affluent father in the town ever be successful? The story is about Human Justice & Divine Justice that has unpredictable and treacherous twists & turns. I wrote this book with immense love for the people of Tamil Nadu in India.
