“Are you sure the one whom
you trust the most is worthy of it?”
In midst of umpteen thrillers based on terrorism,
Indo-Pak issue etc. Sniper’s Eye is a fast-paced,
high on adrenaline, short and a refreshing action thriller. I have always been a fan of this genre and
never feel like putting a book down at the end of the day. The adrenaline rush it pumps is worth missing
out on your sleep for few hours.
Well known writers such as Tom Clancy, Robert Ludlum
etc. fuelled my thirst for fast-paced, action thrillers before and Mainak Dhar
is topping my list with Sniper’s Eye.
Sniper’s Eye offers a very fresh plot for thriller
readers. It has a good storyline based
around the mystery behind a string of brutal serial killings of retired defence
personnel and how the protagonist, an ex-army officer who is happy with his
post-army life, gets caught in midst of all these. How the tracks lead him to a
huge conspiracy that can have catastrophic consequences on the entire nation
and its security? How does he battle his past, his personal demons and also the
situation he is embroiled in? How does he ensure his loved ones aren’t hurt? And
finally, how does he use his battle experience, intuition and common sense to
choose the right-side and come out unscathed?
The narrative is kept simple, fast, crisp and clear
with no room for nonsense, yet nerve-gripping. The pace really gets to your
adrenaline and you won’t feel like putting the book down. The heroes of this
book are its story and Mainak Dhar himself.
Don’t forget to pick your copy of Sniper’s Eye!
I would rate this book 4.5 out of 5.
