Sailor Twenty One - Tapa blanda

Sinopsis

About The Book- Anita and Tanveer Bhatia are on a Dubai-Singapore cruise, Anita as staff captain and Tanveer as a passenger. This cruise holiday is an attempt to heal their relationship, strained by Tanveer's recent incarceration in a foreign prison and Anita's affair with a colleague. Imagine Anita's surprise, when her lover Sudarshan Panchal joins the Asian Queen as third officer. Second officer is Rahim Khan, a Pakistani acquaintance of the Bhatias. But Rahim's sexy girlfriend Benazir is more than just an acrobat entertainer. She blackmails Anita into allowing her luggage on board without the mandatory checks and even tries to seduce Tanveer. As the Asian Queen leaves Dubai, Captain Bilimoria has a heart attack. Anita has to take charge. At Muscat she evacuates Bilimoria and boards Pakistani movie star Javed Khan. Movie-buff Sudarshan helps Benazir get the actor's autograph. Meanwhile, Captain Devgun replaces Bilimoria; Anita is surprised-the company hasn't informed her. In Mumbai, Anita gets more troubling news from RAW agent Anand Sanyal. He claims Bilimoria didn't have a heart attack, he was drugged. The ISI haven't forgotten Uri and Balakot. Their agents are on the Asian Queen. Who are they, and what's their game? Can RAW checkmate the ISI? Is Rahim a friend or an enemy? Will Anita and Tanveer's marriage survive this cruise?
