About the Book
On a balmy November evening, a group of terrorists unleash mindless carnage in the city of Mumbai. Pitted against them, in one of the city’s grandest hotels, are the commandos from the elite Special Forces. Leading them are Captain Neel Dutta and Major Sam Fernandes, two of the forces’ youngest officers: friends for life, and each other’s confidantes. But, only one of them survives to tell their tale. It is at this explosive moment that No Margin for Error truly begins. Tanushree turns the clock backwards – whizzing past days, months, years, inviting us to enter the lives of best friends, Neel and Sam. How did they meet? How they bonded with each other in a world away from home? How did they survive brutal training, heartbreaks, internal politics, and missions of national importance during their time together as rookies in the Indian Army? And most importantly, how did they end up in Mumbai on that fatal day? Tanushree’s exciting follow-up to Boots, Belts, Berets and On the Double takes an incisive look at the patriots who risk it all to stand in the line of fire. Tanushree is a self-confessed word-a-holic and a traveller. When not reading or writing books, she’s sure to be packing her bags and boots to zip around the world. A true maverick, she stumbled through many career choices before settling on writing. A chocolate addict with a penchant for the unusual, she has collected dozens of interesting certificates that range from a wine-master’s assistant at Australia, an international reindeer driving licence from Lapland, to one from ‘The School of Hard Knocks’ at Royal Selangor. No Margin for Error is her ninth novel. After leading a nomadic life for several decades, thanks to the Indian Army, she has finally grown roots at Pune.
