when terror strikes (teaser trailer 2)

The demand for fresh human organs existed and Nikhil was a reliable supplier. He was grateful to the private nursing home where he spent a few weeks as a ward boy, and later graduated to be a be helper in the Operation Theater. That short stint was invaluable to him because it was there that he saw, handled and became familiar with surgical instruments like the scalpels, forceps and knives. He observed how the surgeon cut through the flesh and fat to reach into the innermost cavities of the human body.

when terror strikes (teaser trailer 1)

‘I have people who supply cartridges that bear foreign marks – made in the by-lanes right here, the markings are fake ones, as fake as the SIM cards and I- cards. Do you know that marketing Terrorist props is a flourishing business, dress that resemble official ones of the police, the fire brigade and the armed forces have innumerable takers?’

‘Saab-ji , if the madaris can train monkeys to dance and beg on the streets and steal from multistory buildings, why can they not be trained to plant bombs?’

when terror strikes (synopsis)

Synopsis

Killing to Munni-chachi was a method to clear obstacles. Very few knew of her real power, her hidden agenda. To the commoner, she could manage the impossible. People loved and respected her for her generosity, for her helping nature, for her willingness to go the extra mile.

The Mumbai bomb blasts of 26/11, to her, were Godsend. It would camouflage her intentions.

The only surviving terrorist Joseph Akmal Khan was behind bars – it threw up immense possibilities. Munni-chachi could now activate her terror modules.

If there were remnants of burnt Urdu newspapers, Pakistani coins and firearms with foreign markings in the debris of any destruction those would imply the presence of foreign hands and the situation could be exploited to the fullest.

She was spurred for quick action due to an e-mail received by a TV news channel hinting at attacks on defense and strategic installations in and around Mumbai. All hell broke loose.

The Home Minister called for an emergency meeting with RAW (the Research and Analysis Wing), the Anti Terrorist Squad and the Police Commissioner with the Chiefs of the Armed Forces to evolve strategies to counter the threats.

With kidnappings, missing slum children and a doctor-builder nexus in a kidney racket, this novel keeps you on the edge.

This is a story of modern day terrorism, terrorists and terror modules.

Adultery via the cyber world

Internet culture has given rise to married ones getting into trouble. The social networking sites are the real culprits because statistics from offices of divorce lawyers reveal that such websites promote adultery and married people carry on illicit affairs over the net. They have the main advantage of being invisible – they can keep their identity a secret. They meet on chat sites, come to know each other, and as the intimacy grows, the distances vanish. Then there comes the urge to meet face to face and, even though these might be huge disappointments when reality takes over from fantasy, the matter of the fact is that these can lead to prolonged sufferings. Final result is in the office of the divorce lawyer.

Where should you have sex

The conventional method of enjoying sex is behind closed doors but, there are exceptions. In Australia, people love to have sex out in the open – out of doors! The question put to its readers by a newspaper was ‘where is the spiciest place you have had sex?’ The responses varied and made for interesting reading – some said they would do it from the top of a tower, others said they would go underneath a bridge or do it in a disabled toilet or, just imagine, on a trampoline! No – there was no location on any tree-top but there were other choices galore - no wonder Perth can lay claim to being the sexiest city!
