Do you carry a secret and fear to let it out?
A single mother, a special son, a mentoring boss, a supportive neighbour, all carry a secret, a truth. If it comes out, it could end relationships, break families, or cause shame. Each one of them has their own beautiful life filled with lovely children, best friends, a respectable position in society, and reasons for concealing the truth. On the outside, they all seem to have a normal life - filled with friendships, fun and frolic, hard and monotonous work, love and relationships, and grief and recovery.
Suri, a young man, is holding on to the horrific memories of a childhood incident and is terrified to speak up. Savithri, a single mom, is carrying a secret for many years fearing the unknown repercussions if she spills it. Patel, the boss, has an unsuspecting habit and doesn't have a clue of the consequences if it is out in the open. Narayanan, a supportive neighbour, is dumbstruck after knowing the reality of certain occurrences and decides to disconnect with the people concerned, instead of speaking with them.
The main characters in the story are from Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu, popularly known as the Manchester of South India. The narrative revolves around the life of each person and their dark secrets and eventually how the unexpected spectrum of events result in the unveiling of the hidden truth. Do families break up? Do relationships end? Do people lose their reputations? You'll have to read the book to know more.
