The Terrorist

When you are trained to endure the harshest of climates, the most hostile of situations, to survive where no ordinary man can—there’s little difference between you and the terrorist you are trying to kill.

Suvir and Murad — both victims of circumstances both numb with the pain of having lost their loved ones — choose to do things differently. While one crosses the border and becomes the most dreaded of terrorists, the other joins the Special Forces. Their face-off is a fight to death as one is out to carry out a major terrorist operation in Delhi and the other has been specially called in to foil the attack.

Moving breathlessly, through rugged terrain, this edgy thriller, The Terrorist, will not let the readers rest till the very last page.
