Where The Rainbow Ends by Anurag Anand



On The Jacket –

Rahul had everything going his way – a soaring career, a happy family and all else a man his age could yearn for. And then suddenly his life began to crumble all around him, disintegrating element after precious element, leaving him to watch in helpless horror.

Where had he gone wrong? Was there still hope for redemption, even a solitary ray that he could cling on to?

Avantika, a pretty, vivacious girl who had come into Rahul’s life by pure accident, literally, has suddenly gone missing. Just like that, without as much as a trace.

Where is Avantika? Will Rahul be able to find her? Is it her own past that has come back to consume her or is it something even more vicious and sinister?

Shalini, Rahul’s first love and a girl accustomed to leading life on her own terms. Hailing from a family that exerts considerable influence in the galleries of politics and power, she certainly has the wherewithal to impact a lot of things. Even lives.

Is Shalini fostering a grudge that could displace not one but many lives? Could she be the one behind Avantika’s mysterious disappearance?

Now, Review Time –

Where The Rainbow Ends is very well crafted story. It starts from the airport. And then in plane he met love of his life who went missing. The title, plot and cover page are well synchronized. This is one of the best stories I have read so in last few months. It’s awesome just because of narration style of author. I have never read works of any Indian author with such a narrating style. Climax of the story is quite predictable. 

Shalini’s character was very realistic. But when author introduces her it was quite dull. It could have been better. Avantika’s letter makes the best part in the story and was enough to make one’s eyes wet. Every character was coming live to me as if I was watching a Hindi movie. Story has its own charm in it. Story is mysterious and you wait to unfold the mysteries one by one. Emotions are very well described. 

Where The Rainbow Ends is a fresh story and take you on a joy ride. It will make you think all what had happened once again. I would like to rate it 4.5/5. It is recommended by Ken Ghosh, Director. So it stands recommended by Read In Park also.
