I once worked for the government, going into missions that never officially happened, killing enemies we never officially killed. They gave me a bunch of medals, partly for doing my job well, mostly to keep my mouth shut.
My bosses tell me that I can now sit at a desk and not worry about killing people anymore. They tell me my latest mission is simple- babysit a gangster who is being extradited back from Dubai to face justice. It ends up being anything but simple when I realise powerful forces are at work to kill him before he can spill his secrets. To complicate matters, a beautiful stranger on the run decides I’m her ticket to freedom.
To complete my mission and get her to safety, I have the small matter of getting past ISIS gunmen, Pakistani commandos, Saudi assassins and the Russian mob.
Would make for quite a tale. If I stay alive long enough to tell it.

This is the second book in the Unit 22 series, first one being The 1st Assassin. We can place this book in soldier thriller genre. Being a person who have not read the first one, I didn't feel left out. That is the thing about spy series, all stories are standalone but the glimpses of previous stories will always haunt you as they help in building up the character and reactions of the protagonist.

You will find fight sequences, plotting, friendship, love and thrill throughout the story. He not only gets involved with the enemies of the prisoner but also gets mixed up with Saudi price and Russian assassins. He is really good and quick in decision making which makes him the best one to take the lead and complete the project. As I already mentioned the book is a fast paced thriller and a page turner. You can complete the book in just a few days. The language is easy to understand and picturesque which helps you imagine the story as a movie - making the book a visual treat as well. I wish the author the very best for future projects and hope that this series continues for a few more books. If you are a thriller lover you must try this book out.
This was my first time with the Action filled fully blast power pack kind of book. And it was intriguing fully loaded with craze and energy.

✍️ Kudos to Author sir. This is my 3rd book of Mainak sir and his writing is wonderful as always. Ten long chapters but seems like a blink of eyes moment. There is no single page where I felt to skip and that's the real charm of someone's writing.
✍️ Here the story started with an army men who were somehow forced to sealed his mouth for his entire life. Ofcourse he got lot of rewards to keep mouth shut but then one day he was appointed to perform a unique duty.
That duty was full of suspicious activities. He got chance to enhance more darker truths. Events took place which made him courageous to be more active and ethical.
👉 Above the entire plot, the way of picturising an army man along with his duty, his commitment towards his own country, his sacrifices and bravery - every bit of it was so realistic that one can simply relate one's armyman easily.
Mainak sir's writing is always a page turner for me and this book is no different. From starting to end, I enjoyed reading this wonderful book.
The 2nd Fugitive by Mainak Dhar is the second book the Unit 22 spy thriller series.
We see that our protagonist from the previous book making a comeback i.e. Major Aditya Sen, even more rogue yet careful and serious yet sarcastic streak in his character.
As someone who has read the first book, I just want to say that the 2nd one is even more better.
There's action and then there is another lady involved, a gangster who needs to be transported back in the country to face justice and a whole lot of agents from different countries on the mission to kill the said gangster.
But the plot opens up with our dear Major on a desk, in a crappy mood , filling out bureaucratic forms. I just love how the beginning is always so innocent and then there's the thriller.
Very well written and executed yet again. Gives the reader a visual description instead of just a description. Loved reading it, hoping to see more of this series.
Right from a very young age, often we are told to expect the unexpected because irrespective of the plans that we make, or deeds that we ought to do, there are certain things which will occur the way they want to, and not what we desire.
This is the reason why seldom we are decieved by the initial outward appearances, and forget the most important and crucial detail, which is that things are not always that they seem, and are much different in reality.
In the book, ‘The 2nd Fugitive: A Unit 22 Thriller’ by author Mainak Dhar, we see a similar plight of our main protagonist, when after working for missions of highest importance, he feels dissatisfied working a regular and stable office job.
But we never know what is going to come next, and similarly, Aaditya also has to undergo a series of thrilling adventures in order to get the task which has been assigned to him done.
At first, we might feel like since he was going to be at a desk job, there would not be much adventure to be seen, but we are proven wrong as right from the start, there come incidences which will simply blow our mind away. Hence I am going to give this FIVE STARS ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Having read the first book in the Unit 22 Thriller series, I was keen to see what the second instalment has in store.
There is no question about the fact that Mr. Dhar is a talented and captivating storyteller. He has a way with words that end up weaving a perfect action thriller that grips the readers right from the get-go. A political thriller that follows the story of a retired major who has been assigned a high-stakes case, 2nd Fugitive is one of those crime thrillers where you can’t miss even a single detail, lest you miss an important plot point.
I thoroughly enjoyed this book with an intricately woven plotline and intriguing storyline. Recommended, for sure!

Spy thrillers often revolve around espionage, covert operations, and high-stakes missions, creating a sense of mystery and suspense. Also, Spy thrillers offer readers a glimpse into the secretive world of intelligence agencies, spies, and espionage and often touch upon political conspiracies, international conflicts, and social issues. For their ability to deliver gripping plots, exhilarating action, complex characters, and a captivating exploration of espionage and its consequences, Spy thriller stories garner a larger audience.
The 2nd Fugitive by Mainak Dhar is the gripping second book in the "The Unit 22" series, following the thrilling debut of The 1st Assassin and an exciting Spy thriller. In this action-packed novel, Major Aaditya Sen takes on a seemingly straightforward mission to bring back the notorious underworld don, Raza, from Dubai to India. However, his solitary journey quickly turns into a difficult battle against multiple adversaries, with the fate of his mission hanging in the balance.
Dhar's strength lies in his ability to craft exhilarating action sequences. As said, this is my 4th book by the author and the second one in the series. Penning captivating sequences is wonderful as in his previous works, be it The Sniper's Eye or The 1st Assassin in this series. And now, this book is no exception. From Aaditya's clashes with the Saudi Royal Guards to the elimination of hitmen at a luxury resort and the intense encounters on Dubai's roads, the book keeps readers on the edge of their seats.

The Major's rigorous study and strategy skills and the action-packed thrills are the story's highlights.

The straightforward exchanges between the characters, especially those given by Aaditya, give them more depth and realism, enhancing their interactions' impact and memorability.
With The 2nd Fugitive, Mainak Dhar delivers another thrilling story that captivates readers from start to finish. The book's intense action sequences, strategic planning, and meticulous research showcase Dhar's skill as a storyteller. Whether you're a fan of spy thrillers or simply seeking a gripping read, this must-read will leave you eagerly anticipating the next adventure in the series.
Major Aaditya Sen is now posted at a monotonous desk job but has a new task assigned by his boss Srini — to bring back the notorious underworld don Raza, from Dubai to India. The Emirates Government has agreed to hand over Raza to Indian authorities as part of their diplomatic relationships. Unlike other life-threatening missions, he was involved in so far, this one is straight forward, hence Aaditya leaves alone to Dubai without his team from Unit 22.
However, at the end of his first day in Dubai, Aaditya has badly hit Saudi Royal Guards, killed two local hitmen in a luxury resort and two Pakistani ISI diplomats on the Dubai roads. Soon there are Russian hitmen also hired to bump off the Major and Raza. With multiple groups vying for Raza’s blood and Aaditya fighting a lone war against unknown threats, will he be able to succeed in this mission forms the rest of the story.
This is the second book in the Unit 22 series, after The 1st Assassin. For those who have not read the first book in the series, instead of a separate recap, the author included snippets from the earlier book in the first chapter, so those picking this book standalone will not miss any details of the characters or the story that happened.
For those who read book 1, this is going to be a real treat, as they get to witness Major Sen’s bravery one more time, and in a better setting. Like all earlier books of the author, the action sequences are the best part of the book, especially in the first half where there are back-to-back such sequences.
The author effortlessly transports the reader into the middle of these action sequences, filled with adrenaline rush capturing even the minutest details — the arms fired and the bones cracked. However, it is not just the action sequences that caught my attention, the strategy and meticulous planning that the Major does and the research that the author did for the storyline.
The author closes all lose threads towards the end, but does gives hopes for another Unit 22 thriller, which I am looking forward to. The no-nonsense dialogues of the lead characters especially by Aaditya are impressive; while his character is an extension to what readers already witnessed in book1, Raza’s characterization and his arc are interesting.
The backdrop of Dubai and its well-known landscapes play a major role in the story. If you are a fan of spy thrillers, then this a must read and for readers of other genres, I would recommend this as a good start.

This is the second book of Mainak Dhar I just completed reading and I am simply amazed by the writing style. Mainak Dhar books are always a captivating read for me. I really enjoy them. "The 2nd Fugitive" is the sequel to "The 1st Assassin" . These two books come under the same series "Unit 22 series". In the first book of this series Major Aditya Sen sent on a mission about the investigation of assassins against the US citizen. And this time Major Aditya Sen got a mission again. This time the task is quite simple from the previous one. He has to bring back the notorious underworld don Raza, from Dubai to India, safe and sound. In Dubai he faced many struggles and life risks while doing his mission like ISIS gunmen, Russian mob, Pakistani commandos, he killed two local hitmen and also hit Saudi Royal Guards. Aditya is fighting all these wars alone without even knowing the unknown threat just for his commitment towards his duty and nation. This book is the comeback of Major Aditya Sen in more careful, intelligent, strict form. Also, the author added a character of a lady which will bring a new twist in the story.

The writing style of Mainak Dhar makes the story more realistic to us which defines the real life of an army man, his duties, his commitment towards his nation. How he takes risks for his nation without even thinking about his own life. How he has to sacrifice many things to fulfill his duties. There is no doubt that Mainak Dhar is a talented storyteller. He can make the reader read the whole story without even skipping a single page through his perfect twists and turns in the plot. To help the new readers who have not read the 1st Assassin , the author included the synapsis of the previous book in the first chapter of 2nd Fugitive. The author also gave a hint that maybe there will be another book in the "Unite 22 series." Highly recommended for spy thriller lovers.
This is the second book in the Unit 22 series and an excellent spy thriller. Though the second book of the series, this can also be read as a standalone.
Major Aaditya Sen is now posted at a desk job and is assigned a mission to bring back the notorious underworld don Raza, from Dubai to India. What starts as a straightforward escort mission, quickly falls apart when mysterious assassins try to sabotage the mission. Soon Aditya is caught in the crossfire and with multiple groups vying for Raza, Aaditya has to fight a lone war to succeed in his mission. Will he be able to succeed in this mission?
As a spy thriller, The 2nd fugitive has all the elements of an excellent spy thriller. A tough-as-nails spy, a thrilling mission, relentless action, and twists that will keep you guessing. The story revolves around Major Aaditya and he is a veteran, hard-boiled spy, with a penchant for action. His mission seems straightforward at the start but soon a host of enemies from ISI commandos, Saudi assassins, and even the Russian gangsters get involved. It’s absolutely thrilling to read Major Aditya fighting his way through trouble, sometimes with muscle and sometimes with wits. The action in this book is intense and unrelenting and with numerous twists and turns, this book is an absolute page-turner.
What I loved most about the book is the way it plays like a Hollywood thriller, often not giving you the time to think as the story keeps taking unexpected turns. The action and the chase sequences are some of the best in the book and the book gets the tense atmosphere of a thriller just right. Apart from the action, the quick and clever thinking of the protagonist makes the story really exciting.
Overall, as a thriller fan, this is a series to watch out for. If you are a fan of spy thrillers with lots of action, then you enjoy this book.
A Unit 22 Thriller series In the first book, that is: 𝘛𝘩𝘦 1𝘴𝘵 𝘈𝘴𝘴𝘢𝘴𝘴𝘪𝘯, we see our protagonist was put on a task force investigating an assassination plot against the US President. In this book we see the life of our protagonist from the same thread of the first book where he went through a lot of turmoil and loss of loved ones and finally getting to the bottom of that conspiracy.
Now, he still works for the government, but now ride a desk, barely tolerated by his boss, barely tolerating himself until he gets a call from Srini for his next mission.
The story revolves around Aditya Sen a government official and who is assigned with a task to escort a gangster,Raza, from Dubai and bring him to justice. But definitely that journey of his wasn't going to be as easy as it sounds like because Raza, is chased and wanted by many other gangster group, so therefore it's our protagonist's conquest against a group of gangster along with political drama.
I was hooked and intrigue from the beginning. The plotline was engaging and the characters were well written. The narrative was mild paced and also detailed providing a proper picturesque to this action packed thriller making it very intriguing to read it along with a steady plot building. The language used was easy and can be easily comprehensible even by beginners. Even though it's a part of series it can still be read and comprehended if read as a standalone because it concentrates on a different mission and all necessary details are effectively included. Would recommend this book to readers are who likes reading action thrillers.
Mainak Dhar returns with another adrenaline-fueled installment in his " Unit 22 Thriller series" with "The 2nd Fugitive." Packed with non-stop action, covert missions, and unexpected twists, this book will keep readers on the edge of their seats from start to finish.
Though the discussion of the story line in such a book where many surprises are waiting after turning the pages , I personally don't like. As it destroys the author's effort and spoiler is never a great experience for me. However the story revolves around a retired government agent who is unexpectedly drawn back into the perilous realm he believed he had escaped. Assigned to protect a gangster during extradition, he uncovers a sinister plot to eliminate the prisoner and ensure his silence. Amidst this turmoil, a mysterious woman entangles him in her desperate bid for freedom, propelling them into a life-or-death struggle. Grab a copy of this book and explore more.
What I was impressed with the most was the flow of the writing! Everything is gelled together seamlessly and I whizzed through the book in one sitting.

With thrilling plotline, engaging narrative, smooth flow and remarkable characters, the book brings us face to face with the bitter realities of life, the cruel truths of society and the harsh games of politics.
"People are much more complex than our simplistic notions of good or evil."
Amid its wild sense of adventure and shrewd brainwork, the story also brings to our realization that not everyone one who performs a crime is a criminal at heart.

Spread with massive twists and turns as well with several unexpected turn of events, the book keeps the readers on the edge of their seats, anxiously trying to contemplate what will happen next but repeatedly finding themselves caught completely off-guard at every stage.

THE 2ND FUGITIVE A UNIT 22 THRILLER wirtten by the author MAINAK DHAR the story is very intersting and thrilled written by the author .The writers writes with clarity yet pulls you in as a reader. There's a great assassination plot going on, some interesting characters, and plenty of action to keep the pace moving quickly along. Definitely a fun and enticing read that keeps your attention.Amazon Vine Voice One of the year’s top conspiracy thrillers Best Thriller Book Award Amy was a special woman. The story is about the special woman that she made some of the choices she did, but with all that she went through, who am I to judge her? At the end, she came through for me. My earlier life in uniform was simpler- with easily defined enemies my bosses pointed out for me. Those days when we were hunting the assassins taught me that the world is more complex than that. There are enough people ready to prey on the weak, people who may never fire a gun, but who pull the strings in the background, like that bastard Walker and his masters, whoever they might be. The warrior. The one who goes out and does shit the rest of us wish we could. The one who still believes in good and evil and fighting the good fight. A total misfit in a world where people focus on creating the right perception on their bosses instead of what they actually do and edit and re-edit memos to make themselves look good and always try to cover their ass in case something goes wrong.Likes this way the story goes .I have enjoyed a lot .You thing I learned for the story is that "never give "life is a battle we have to fight .I love the story most .
I have read the first book in this series so it was easier to connect some incidents and characters but at the same time, this book can be read as a standalone also and you won't be disappointed.
Aditya Sen, an army officer was brought to do office work on a boring desk due to some unfortunate events happened back which affected his mental health. But he was recovering fast which i had seen in first book. He had unveiled some hidden enemies who wanted to harm US president visiting India.
In this story, Aditya had been given a simple mission, to bring a notorious man who had been behind the Mumbai attacks, from Dubai to India and then he will be brought to trial. But when there was Aditya, nothing could be easy. He just wanted to save an innocent mother and her son but he didn't know what he was going to face. There was many turns and twists which made it a perfect binge read thriller. The fight between Russians, Saudis and Pakistanis was a treat to read like i was watching an edge on seat spy thriller.
Overall, this was a super adventurous spy thriller where the protagonist is not exactly a spy but an armyman who doesn't always think by mind and sometimes listens to his heart which makes him an incredible human being. I liked all the characters including the bad man who had some good side also. I loved the plot and storyline. The narration was totally gripping. If you like spy thrillers, unputdownable story with lots of twists, this is totally recommended.
This book has some great lines which says noone is a bad man, he just makes some bad choices for which he has to face consequences.

This year I have started with the second book of the series by Mainak Dhar.Since I have read the prequel of this book called “1st Assassin”.this title” 2nd Fugitive”I picked without any doubt and this proved me right in the sense of narration and helps me to give a contentment of action thriller.

This is the second novel by Mainak Dhar that I've read, and I really liked it. The other book I've read was The 1st Assassin. The two belong to "A Unit 22 Thriller" series.
This narrative, in my opinion, offers every element a fan of military-spy-action-drama fiction could ask for. From the terrorists to the hostages to the heroes, and everyone in between, it provides a step-by-step, in-depth look at all the characters involved as politics, the press, and several nations fight for their respective causes. For some reason, this type of story can always hold my attention, because I can’t resist a hardened bad ass alpha who takes charge and saves the world.
The narrative centres on Major Aaditya Sen's incredible return. Aaditya Sen, a major, is assigned to a boring desk job as a result of some earlier occurrences. However, he was given a new task: transporting the notorious underworld don Raza from Dubai to India. Together with the prisoner's adversaries, assassins from Saudi Arabia and Russia come into contact with him. What actually occurred subsequently was not what was intended.
Anyway Mainak Dhar wrote a story that was clever and simply not cheap. Not silly, gimmicky, or trivial. I was flummoxed as to what will happen next. As you can imagine the characters are not the most believable people. Also, the plot is not extremely sophisticated. Nonetheless, he creates a plot that is incredibly action-packed and can carry the reader to its thrilling and satisfying end.
