Synopsis" I reminisced about our two nights in Mussoorie. The first night, as in the first night of a marriage,
had passed in a rush. The second night turned out to be amazing, though slightly risqué. I had thought
I alone would end up providing sketches from my life. But all of us revealed more of each other than
ever before in our life.
Second Night is the riveting story of a woman determined to escape and a man who has vowed to
find her. An unforgettable tale of friendship unfolds as three friends come together in Mussoorie
to spend the most amazing night of their lives.
Clever and haunting by turns, Second Night is about the power of love, the pain of loss, and the
possibility of redemption. This touching and romantic novel is filled with unexpected turns, the
finest twist coming at the very end.
A masterpiece of fiction, Second Night blends the wisdom of age with the passion of youth in
flawless, often lyrical prose."
