The Two-Faced Truth

by Shoumodip Roy, Dee Kay

A bullet knows no master. It is just a servant of destruction. Even the person who pulls the trigger is just a mere slave to the agent of chaos…a chaos that was enough to shake their delusional truth off them.

A friendship over decades was interlaced by the most precious thing in their lives. Little did they know that their bond of hearts had been standing over an illusion of trust for so long or that their world would become vulnerable and fragile the moment that beloved part of their life is snatched away. For them, all that remained was just an image of one happy family veiled under their individual self-centered motives.

Whose love was true? Whose truth was a lie? Why did the unbreakable relationships fall apart?
What was THE TWO-FACED TRUTH?

Find out the answers in the complete first season of this tragic-thriller Novelette, based on the characters created and written by Roy & Dee Kay.

This is a story that quickly captured my interest and pulled me in from the first surprise to the last! Yes, you read it, multiple surprises were provided to me in this book.
The story is about two friends, Neel & Rudra, bound by ties so deep that everything became lost in the mix. The friendship was forged and destroyed by these deep ties. Love, Loss, and Destruction were palpable in this novelette. The book was written from each character's point of view. One chapter was on Neel and what he was experiencing and seeing and the next would be on Rudra and what he was experiencing and seeing during the same time-frame.
The authors did a good job on creating complex characters in this book and the only thing that I would say I found distracting were the few typos in the novel. Being a first book, typos are standard, and this book was no different. Overall, I would highly recommend any reader wanting a fast escape from reality to pick up this book. It is an easy and fast read.

"An exceptionally great plot and writing style"

I liked the artistic and experimental style of the novelette. The plot is fast paced and it is not falling under any standard way of writing a novel. The characters are are memorable and vividly portrayed throughout the novel. It made me anticipate for the next scene and it is thrilling.

I also love the deeper topic within the novelette and the question the writers posed here in search for the 'Monster' in ourselves. I do recommend the good read of this. Very entertaining.

This books doesnt serve anything to anybody. There is no character in this that can be taken in real life. I didn't understand what author want to communicate. Looks like all his life misery was put into this book. But then these kind 30 pages short stories are just an insult to story telling and author didn't give any importance to it. he has written what ever stroked in his mind. out of 30 pages story he used around 10 pages of exclamatory sentences like awww!!!!, umm!!!!, shit!!! and another 10 pages of bad language. its an insult to story telling and English literature

It takes about half hour to read it, it gets better towards the end.

Read it because I got invited by Dee Kay and Roy through WordPress, but felt that there was too much noise about it, and so little substance.

It is a nice try, still it fell short of expectations.
