RIP by Mukul Deva – Book Review
I was fascinated right from the beginning
when I came across RIP by Mukul Deva and read the synopsis. Thanks to Blogadda
I got an opportunity to read the piece without shedding anything from my
pocket. The book came in good shape with a distinct smell and an exciting cover
collage. I am really pleased to write that the book did not disappoint me at
all. It is a ripper indeed with intense gripping plot and you will be glued to
it from the very first chapter.
Mukul Deva is a well-known crime thriller
writer with best sellers and famous books like Lashkar, Salim Must Die, Blowback and Tanzeem.
But unfortunately RIP is the first one I gone through and I think it will be a
best seller as well.
RIP stands for
Resurgent Indian Patriots formed by a group of 6 ex-special force officers. It
is also known as K-team (as the name of all the 6 group members starts with K)
and their objectives are to serve justice to the nation against present
political scenario and corruption. The group is led by Colonel Krishna
Athawale. They start by killing three corrupt politicians in a span of few
minutes and follow it with a mail claiming the kills. They also warn about 3
more killing to be followed in the next 3 days. They also keep many demands in front
of Indian Government for betterment of the country. As a consequence the
corrupt political leaders call for a meeting and appointed a scamp commando Raghav
Bhagat and his team to stop RIP. Off-course the police force is after RIP as
well. The cat and mouse race begin. As usual RIP will win it through some luck
and superior intelligence (some may find this idea quite cliche but the
griping plot will keep your adrenalin going (it is a fiction after all and the
good guy must win).
A parallel romantic plot
also runs along the main story which is also very well portrayed is not
interfering with the pace of the story in any way. I really loved the
narration. Though it is a total work of fiction as stated by the author, there
are some striking similarities of the book characters with real life and one
can easily find out who the author is targeting. This may irritate some readers
and could be avoided in the first place.
Overall I find RIP as
a page turner for sure with intense action packed throughout the book. It has
almost all the qualities of a descent crime thriller fiction. Every
character of RIP has a notable existence. They are well described and handled
with great care. This book is an excellent creation making me a fan of Deva’s work. I now
have to go through all his creations as quickly as possible. I must
congratulate the author for this exciting novel. So all the thriller
lovers, go through RIP, it will not disappoint you.
