Description
Prabha Sinha, an IT professional in Chennai, is plunged into a murky world of idol theft, murder, and betrayal after she gets a mysterious phone call one night from her old friend Sneha Pillai. As she races to find answers before the people she loves get hurt, she seeks the help of Jai Vadehra, a troubled young man with a tragic past, and the gorgeous DSP Gerard Ratnaraj of the Idol Wing, CID, whom she can't help but be drawn to. Their search takes them from Chennai's newsrooms and universities to the abandoned sepulchral shrine of a Chola queen in the heartland of Tamil Nadu, and nothing, and no one, is as they seem.

Person
Divya Kumar is a writer and journalist currently based in Dubai. She spent her early 20s studying and working in the U.S., dabbling in web-design and media studies before settling down to a career in journalism. Upon returning to India, she began working at The Hindu in Chennai, writing for Metroplus and other features supplements on books, art, music and cinema.
After the birth of her daughter, she began to work on her first novel, while continuing to freelance for The Hindu, channelling her experiences of motherhood into writing 'Toddler Talk', a light-hearted weekly column on parenting for the Metroplus.
She has also been blogging at divyakumar.com for close to a decade about the everyday absurdities of life. Divya is a voracious reader of fiction of all sorts, and a classically-trained singer-songwriter.
