'Mystery of the urban monks'

John, a very well established author and publisher from USA meets yogesh, a yoga guru during his train journey to varanasi.  The yogi narrates him a story that mainly focuses on three friends:

Tony, a highschool dropout drinker
Krish, an IITian who own a software company
Asif, a music loving carpet seller
All the three decides to go on a trip to Goa.  Although they enjoyed a lot but a sudden incident totally changed the story.  As you read the book, new twists come one by one.  The book is surely a page turner.

This book has so many unexpected twists and turns that will keep you hooked till the end.  It took me few hours to finish this book.  It was definitely a light yet gripping read with insightful thoughts.  Cover is appropriate
