Why should the hubby, a good, honest and honourable person, think of killing his loving, dutiful wife and self? Why not choose to divorce her instead? There must be a good reason or reasons. But what are they? Similarly, why does a jilted youthful lover get angry first when prevented from attempting suicide and then agree to a suicide pact involving the husband, his ailing wife and self? Answers to these queries plus fascinating anecdotes and thrilling episodes of crime, love, romance, sex, etc. can be found in the two personal diaries that come into the picture. And, then, the story’s end—is it surprising? And okay?
