A tourist is raped in a fishing village on New Year''s Eve, with teen boys as suspects. They face communal tensions while trying to prove their innocence. The hunt for the real rapist and growing religious divides push the village to the brink in Sabin Iqbal''s debut novel, "The Cliffhangers."
On New Year''s Eve, a tourist is raped in Kadaloor, a tranquil fishing village on the southern coast of the country. The chief suspects are a group of teenaged boys (called the Cliffhangers). As they attempt to prove their innocence, the boys also have to deal with the spectre of communal intolerance that is beginning to divide the Hindu and Muslim fishermen and villagers. Numerous small incidents, in which the boys are sought to be implicated, help ratchet up the stress. The growing communal tension and the hunt for the real rapist intersect, propelling the village to the edge of disaster. In The Cliffhangers, Sabin Iqbal gives us a brilliant debut novel that illuminates hard truths about the religious faultines that are dividing the country.
