My review:

Yuvi is the only survivor in the crash that took his parents lives. It was ruled an accident, but once the investigators start questioning Yuvi, his grandfather, Mohan, and Jennifer, they learn there is way more to the story of how and why the accident happened. Every family has its secrets and the ones in this family are dark, which lead to a shocking ending.
Overall, a lot of information is jam packed into this 53 page book, in a good way. It’s a great start to a series introducing characters of the Bombay Crime Bureau ~ Dev, Priya, Aaron and Salim.

Side note ~ Amazon says the reading age is 16-18. I don’t agree, I think it has adult themes

Book blurb:

A car crash in the dark hours of dawn claims the lives of two passengers, leaving their seventeen-year-old son in the backseat severely injured. A procedural investigation ensues. The police detect little mystery but no foul play. Downplaying the findings of the Forensics department, the police conclude that the driver, Mr. Abhay Mishra, had dozed off behind the wheel, leading to the fatal accident. The survivor and remaining members of the family accept this and make peace with their fate.

However, the investigation takes a new twist once the Bombay Crime Bureau takes charge.
