As the wine and conversation begin to flow at a reunion between six women, who were friends at school, memories start to surface—some happy, others bittersweet and a few that are downright poisonous. Forced to confront dark secrets that they thought lay buried deep in the past, the women begin to turn against one another and the mood of the party turns nightmarish. Death, infidelity, incest, rape, lies and the evil that lurks beneath the everyday lives of people form the substance of Snapshots, Shobha De's explosive new novel.
