‘Delhi
at Dark’ is a second novel by Ram Vignesh. I must say, that he has created mind
capturing work. Words seems lesser to express the feeling which I got after
reading this fabulous work. I must say that I haven’t read such a great
thrilling work till date. I loved the details and the depth he has got into
creating a thriller, which can make reader skip all his tasks to complete the
novel. I was so engrossed in the novel that, with the tension increased in
novel, I too, was nervous and curious about what was coming next. Really a
great work. I must say Sherlock Homes would be boring compared to ‘Delhi at
Dark’. If you guys feel that I’m exaggerating than you people must read this
novel. The way he has used technology and codes to create suspense, is really
fantastic. Hats off Ram Vignesh for creating such a great work.
