About The Book: In the book, The Sun Shines Down, Shreya Basu is a kind of politician India has hardly ever witnessed and that too from a political party that has been suffering from an existential crisis for the last few years. With impeccable beauty and excellent oratory skill, Shreya Basu’s shot to fame is no less than a fairy tale. But now she wishes to contest the election with a powerful incumbent government at their own bastion.
But little did she know about the dirty islands of this murky game of politics. And, in this topsy-turvy ride to power, she came across the enigmatic Hector Fernandez. Obscured by thousands of unanswered questions, Hector Fernandez is haunted by the ghosts of his past. And, to put them to rest, he wants one single thing. Vengeance. And, when Shreya’s seamless ambition to acquire power meets Hector’s hate-filled stigma of retribution, it wreaks war.

There were two parallel stories that were going on but the author had written so beautifully that as a reader no one gets confused. All the character was written perfectly. I loved Shreya Basu’s character. She was an independent, strong, and confident woman portrayed by the author.
The Sun Shines Down is a book with flawless narration that one can complete the book at one stretch. It clearly shows the true part of India. The scams, Elections politics, Media’s importance everything appeared to me as real. Some parts of the book were confusing and lengthy but the plot of the book was so interesting that one can forget the boring part and enjoy the book.
The last part of The Sun Shines Down was very interesting which was the highlight of the book. The reality of women politicians is true to some extent. Their victory always goes through lust. Overall a nice and enjoyable read and I truly appreciate Author’s imagination and writing style. I would recommend all those who have an interest in politics and would love to read scams, dirty politics. All the best Sankha for an interesting read.
