Hide and Seek is a fantastic book for many reasons, including the stunning book cover, the reader-friendly printing, and the captivating plot.

Hide & seek deals with the complications of a relationship after marriage. Three main characters — Radhika, Abhishek, and Omar — each going through a different stage of life. Abhishek is exploring the lusty world outside his marriage, Radhika is attempting to win her husband back, and Omar is trying to move on from the death of his wife.

After marriage, Radhika, a brilliant woman with a lovely life, devotes herself to the family, but the steadily waning interest of her husband in her and their kid sends her continuous warning signs until one day she discovers his infidelity.

She meets Omar, who is genuinely pleasant, while thinking about her married life and trying to discover ways to win her husband back. However, she keeps pushing him away out of loyalty to her failing marriage.

The novel also explores the topic of how, despite our best efforts, we often end up like our parents. Abhishek’s character development may have been influenced by his mother’s absence during his childhood.

Will Radhika follow her heart and end the dead marriage in order to be with Omar, or will she succeed in getting Abhishek back?
