Their intense, forbidden love unfurls in the shadow of Apeksha’s bereavement for her mother. Distraught at losing her soulmate, her mom, Apeksha, finds anchorage in Maya. Maya’s intense love seeps into Apeksha’s being. Maya too wants and needs Apeksha. She is keen to pursue selfhood, her true sexuality, and yearns to live. But, Apeksha’s love is blindsided by a dangerous, concealed streak in Maya, who battles conviction and convenience. Caught in a vortex of violent emotional upheaval, Apeksha discovers the depths of darkness of the human mind, love’s potency and its ability to push its victims to pernicious heights.

Exploring the limits to women’s freedom, this novel debunks several stereotypes about modern Indian women and their passion, while examining an entire spectrum of selfhood, sexuality, love, loss and betrayal.
