An interview with Bookoholics

I BELIEVE THAT WORDS AND STORIES HAVE AN AURA. AUTHORS ARE MERE MEDIA TO CONVEY THESE TALES.

The Bookoholics: It is stated that the book When the Devil Whispers is inspired from a real case, how did you write the characters? Was there a lot of research involved?

Ajinkya Bhasme: Oh yes! 4 years of insanely frightening research. I lived in the neighbourhood for a few days to get the feel of the place Read more of this blog post »
