Blurb:

Arjun Sud a 42-year-old Chartered Accountant lives a stressful corporate life working for an MNC with his family in Mumbai. His wife insists him to attend her cousins wedding in Delhi. The family plans for a holiday to Agra along with an adventure animal safari at nearby Chambal forests. Their holiday goes horribly wrong when one of the camels carrying the children panics and runs deep into the jungle to the land of the sacred Paharian tribes. Arjun's sister Nikki accidentally unlocks the door of the mysterious cave, which is, supposed to hold some ancestral secrets of the tribal. According to the rituals followed by the tribal the one who unlocks the door of the cave has to be killed. The tribal create a Chakravyuh surrounding the family and give them an option either to hand over Nikki or challenge them in an even battle. In a shocking revelation Arjun and family come to know that the Chakravyuh actually was a brilliantly designed cipher as a code, a key to the secrets of the mysterious caves. They are helped through the first door inside the caves by the tribals only to realise that the route to the secrets are filled with life threatening dangers. The entire family decides to quit the expedition, that's when Mr Singhania, an industrialist, shows his true colours and locks them inside the caves to face yet another Chakravyuh.

My verdict: 

This is a story revolves around Arjun Singh Sud and his family. The story starts when a family consisting of 7 members went on a trip but somehow by mistake they manage to invade the private properties of the paharian tribe who don't appreciate foreign invasion in their lands. Chakravuyh is basically a suspense thriller book.
The storyline is pretty good, well thought out and adventurous. The sudden twists and turns at the right places have been presented accordingly. Some of the characters have been portrayed really well & justified
Language is simple and easy enough to understand the story. The title of the Storitself tells the story is the mixture of mystery and adventure. Narration is simple yet interesting, that engages reader with story . Needs grammatical improvement. Waiting for it's sequel.
