A middle aged lady named Achala Talwar, approaches Sunil and tells her that either a murder has already been committed or about to happen. She tells Sunil that her acquaintance Ms. Udita Chopra responded to an advertisement and was selected by one Mr. Amrit Sikka for a strange assignment and was promised for a hefty consideration.

A middle aged lady named Achala Talwar, approaches Sunil and tells her that either a murder has already been committed or about to happen. She tells Sunil that her acquaintance Ms. Udita Chopra responded to an advertisement and was selected by one Mr. Amrit Sikka for a strange assignment and was promised for a hefty consideration. The job was to stay for a few days at a flat rented in the name of some Sujata Saxena. When Ms. Talwar expressed her concern regarding safety of Udita, she was also offered by Mr. Sikka to give her company during the assignment, on the promise of separate consideration. Her job was to receive the incoming calls on basic phone installed inside the rented flat and to reply the caller that Ms. Saxena was not feeling well and therefore she was taking rest and will call back later. After replying to the call, she will have to call on another number and report to Mr. Sikka regarding the details of the call/caller.

Though unconvinced, Sunil assures Ms. Talwar that he will do something in the matter as he is ASM - Aadat Se Mazboor. But before Sunil could do anything and get a clue, Ms. Talwar's nightmares comes to reality and a murder is committed in the rented flat and the murder weapon - the Knife Ms. Talwar use to keep in her handbag. Now it was Sunil's job to search for the Murderer and solve the mystery.

It is the clues and hints that leads Sunil from one step of the ladder of the solution to another. The mystery is intricate.....the one readers are used too.......with all the essentials of a typical Sunilean Novel. The presence of Sunil is felt everywhere in the Novel, from the first scene till the last one and an impressive one, but it was Sunil’s friend Ramakant, who proved to be a show stealer indeed. The humor linked with Ramakant is characteristic and as always, fresh. However one can feel in this Novel that Ramakant has proved to be the thousand hands of Sunil.

Positives: The perfect chemistry between Sunil and Ramakant, Typical Sunilean mystery and step by step revelation of the mystery.

Negatives: The revelation of Murderer is a weak point of the Novel considering that the motive behind the murder was not much convincing.
