Book excerpt: After more than 7 years of legal battle, the four convicted rapists of Nirbhaya of New Delhi, the daughter of India, were executed. It was hailed that finally Nirbhaya got justice! Did she really get justice? No, no. No rape victim or any innocent victim of a crime for that matter, gets justice whether the offender is hanged or imprisoned for life. Justice always eludes the innocent victim. Is revenge justice? If you believe yes, this book may be not for you. No legal system can ensure justice to a victim. No reparation can be justice to an innocent. So, what is the path to justice? Well, Dr. Anjali and her friends, detective turned doctors, rewrite the country’s penal codes and legal procedures. Dr. Anjali, the victim who was kidnapped and abused, proclaims The Last Judgement. The Supreme court of India observed in the Nirbhaya case of 2012: “story of a different world” and: “If ever a case called for hanging, this was it.”

Aadhya finds and recruits 5 other girls that have been raped at some points in their lives. Manju, Sudesha, Palakh, Sathya and Lakshmi.

One by one, the girls target the 10 men that had raped any one of them, and kill them off in the most gruesome and blood-curling way possible.

Download or read book The Snowfly written by Joseph Heywood and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2013-05-07 with total page 563 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One legendary insect--enormous, white, and exceedingly rare--attracts trout of such size that they couldn’t possibly exist in the world as we know it. But in Heywood’s classic novel, such things can and do exist. Protagonist Bowie Rhodes, UPI reporter and expert fly fisherman, had learned of the snowfly early in his childhood. It hatches every seven to ten years, never on the same river twice, bringing to rise trout so huge they would have to have lived forty years or more; trout so wily that they never allow themselves to be caught--or even seen; trout so hungry for this fly that they will risk exposure to rise for the hatch. The snowfly is the sacred quest of the most obsessed trout hunters, existing--it seems--only in myth and in a lost manuscript. Rhodes’s reporting brings him to such sites as the jungles of Vietnam, the labyrinth of Brezhnev’s Soviet Union, and a poisoned Canadian wasteland of uranium mines. His hunt for the manuscript, meanwhile, takes him deep into his own heart of darkness. Richly imaginative and sensual, the world of The Snowfly has more mystery lurking beneath the surface waters than our own. Or does it?
