    The Deeps (Book Three of The Liminality)

      A. Sparrow
$value['title']

James Moody, deported from the UK back to the US, strives to keep his promise to dead girlfriend Karla and rescue her from the frigid antechamber of Hell called The Deeps. Meanwhile, Frelsian assassin Wendell Franks employs coercion to recruit him as an apprentice, threatening to eliminate those he cares for one by one unless he complies.In Parineeta I tried to depict the agony of a young girl who had to marry a man double of her age. Her problem was manifested as she could not tell the person whom he loves, till her death. Her sacrifice for her sons were also not appreciated, rather ridiculed and condemned by her own sons. She had to surrender her body to her husband against her will and then she had to submit her body to a heartless animal for money and physical needs. My ‘Parineeta’ is not based on any real characters living or dead. Association of my name to Parineeta is just to make the story more realistic. I am no way fit into the character as such. Therefore, if any reader finds some similarity in character of Parineeta, it is pure coincidence only.The life of Parineeta is full of un-contended life of a young girl who grew up to face all nonsense of life and one day she died without any ripple in the minds of those for whom she lived with agony of selling her body and soul whom she never loved.

Closer until we’re a couple of feet apart.I smell cigarettes and mint.“Oh, what a brave girl.” He smiled, showing his full front teeth. “A life that was lost, a life will be taken in return. I’ll take yours,”He put out a gun from his jacket and pressed it on my forehead. I watched his smile fall and counted the balls of sweat trickling down his cheeks.“What are you waiting for? Shoot me.”I saw his finger hover over the trigger.Then I hear a click and a bang.
