The Girl On Fire⁣
Devashish Sardana⁣
⁣
There are books that entertain. There are books that challenge you. And then there are books that make you forget everything else as you turn page after page, desperate to know what happens next. The Girl on Fire by Devashish Sardana belongs to that rare third category.⁣
⁣
We’re introduced to IPS Simone Singh, a sharp, no-nonsense officer, fresh off a suspension. She is thrown straight into a chilling case—a serial killer is murdering doctors in Kullu’s Regional Hospital. Dr. Zain Kaushal found himself tangled in the chaos. Nurse Aadya is on the run- but why? What's Dr. Sidat's secret?⁣
Grab the book and find out.⁣
⁣
The perspective keeps switching—one chapter, you’re deep inside Simone’s relentless investigation. The next, you’re running breathlessly with Aadya. Then with Zain and the perspectives keep switching. Twists keep coming in hard and fast. Old secrets come out. Motives shift.⁣
⁣
The writing is crisp and clean. The author doesn’t waste time with flowery prose or over-explaining things. Every line matters. Every chapter ends with a hook. Just when I thought I could put the book down , boom—another cliffhanger.⁣
⁣
This book doesn't just keep you guessing. It makes you guess. It forces you to play detective along with Simone. And that’s exactly what I loved. Another thing that impressed was the pacing. There's never a dull moment. Some thrillers slow down too much in the middle. Not this one. Every chapter pushes the story forward. There’s always something happening.⁣
⁣
"Murder mystery and crime thriller is a genre which will never lose its charm.”⁣
This sentence kept echoing in my head while reading this book. Because the story proves exactly why the genre remains timeless. It taps into something universal—our fear of the unknown, our need for justice, our obsession with figuring things out before the final reveal. And Devashish Sardana uses that timeless appeal beautifully, while still giving us something fresh and different.⁣
