The Body in The Swimming Pool
Shabnam Minwalla
Teenagers Paromita Mehta, Nihal Advani, Darius Engineer and Sunidhi Menon
all fall sick with chicken pox at the same time. Stuck at home and with each
other, they form the Chicken Pox Club. The summer workshop on detection
and investigations the three of them had signed up for is closed to them now,
so they decide to do some detecting on their own. They don't need to look far
for a mystery to solve. A week back, their neighbour, Sandra Saldanha, poet
and Eng Lit professor, had fallen to her death from her balcony, straight into
their apartment's swimming pool.
The Chicken Pox Club starts digging into Sandra's past-her students from
years ago, her book of poetry, her close friends who knew her like no one
else. The clues range from a cryptic note that leads them to an eerie cemetery,
and a poem that makes no sense. Doggedly, they pursue the leads, till they
realize that a deeply twisted and dangerous mind is at work here-someone
who will go to any lengths to keep a deadly, long forgotten secret hidden
forever...
