About this ebook

In a project site in the remote Himalayas where superstitions and religious beliefs are as important as the engineering Nanda, Khusru and Rekha come together through a series of twists and turns in their lives. Nanda is hiding from the law torn between his love for his dear ones and his kalari code of revenge. He is the silent man of the project. Intrigue and real life get mixed with the sudden appearance of Rekha, the lady doctor, at the camp site. Her quest for a man to love and worship takes her on a journey unforeseen in many ways by her. The handsome youth Khusru is envied by all at the site. A gambit in a Kashmir terror plot he manages to escape, but the ghosts of his past are plotting to turn his world upside down. Men and Dreams in the Dhauladhar is about the aspirations of people with their cares and worries woven to the site life. Each has a story to tell and a dream to realize. The fury of nature and the hardships of project life have no mercy for the weak and no time for the dead. Like an eternal spectator the Dhauladhar watches as men risk life and limb in their quest.
