Book Description
On-site to depict the industrial landscape, Raut is only at the Jeddah Company Blast Furnaces for artistic endeavours. But when the manager of the company finds Raut entering an affair with his wife, Raut is about to get more than he bargained for. The manager is intent on showing Raut the dangerous machinery. It looks like Raut will now be getting more than an eyeful... Weaving a shockingly brutal account of one lover’s search for revenge, H. G.

Wells (1866-1946) was an English author and Noble Prize in Literature nominee, prolific across several genres and celebrated as the "father of science fiction". His notable science fiction works include the blockbuster hit adaptation ‘The Time Machine’, ‘The Invisible Man’, ‘The War of the Worlds’, and ‘When the Sleeper Walks’.
