Dr. Mrinalini Sengupta is a troubled psychiatrist battling her own demons. She is supposed to testify as a witness in an unsolved murder case but she is disturbed because it will implicate her favourite musician, the sensational rockstar Rudra Raghuvanshi, as the culprit. She is further baffled when Rudra approaches her for an appointment for a consultation.
But it is just the beginning.
Soon, Mrinalini realizes that her life is in danger. And only one person can help her - Rudra.
There are many faces around her, though each is hidden behind a carefully crafted masquerade.
Can Mrinalini fight the shadows and dark secrets of the past, think beyond her fascination for Rudra, and use her mind to uncover the layers behind the masks surrounding her?

BerkVille: Act 3
Summer sinks into a dark void and out of it emerges the haunting masked stalker "Masquerade". Threats, blissful taunting videos displayed on various screens and the everlasting feeling of being watched. Us five, Dustin, Carson, Beth, Mandy and I, Toy, have to now face our biggest threats: the embodiment of ourselves. Taking our identities and faces, Masquerade's puppets confuse the clueless, rewrite our stories, take advantage of situations and loved ones, flipping the script. Everyone's a suspect and friends turn into foes. Lies and unspoken past secrets toss over the tides and Masquerade becomes our real life boogieman. At the front of the case is Mandy coming off solving the puzzle from summer with a false piece. She's dedicated to figuring out who's behind the mask and their motivations. Seemingly, the only path to do so is through those behind our clay face molds. But that'll prove to be challenging as we try to preserve ourselves, lives and reputation participating in Masquerade's series of twisted childlike games. In the background, a family traced with secrets brings a new level of mystery to BerkVille. And soon we start to consider the possibility of everything being connected somehow. With all this, we try to balance our day to day lives of new romances, angels, competition, being outed and its consequences, family strife, and new endeavors. Have you gotten your dress and mask for the masquerade ball?

BOOK 1 OF OBSESSION SERIES "Some hearts aren't broken- they're just built to burn." ___________________________β€β€β€ "I will shoot, I swear I will!" I shouted, clutching the gun with trembling hands. "Rudra bhai..." Khushi's voice echoed faintly behind me, filled with fear. Mr. Malhotra smirked, his words venomous. "That's what I expected from a low-life like you. A beast in human skin. Even if I die here, I'll still say it-you're worthless." "Rudra, put the gun down!" Mrs. Malhotra cried. "You've already taken your mother's life. Now you want to take the life of the man who stood by you when your own father threw you away like dust? You're a killer, Rudra." That was it. My patience snapped. Suddenly, the lights went out. A loud bang ripped through the darkness. And in the very next second-the lights flickered back on. Mr. Malhotra was on the ground, lifeless. But here's the thing-I didn't pull the trigger. βWill Rudra finally uncover who's framing him, or will this death seal his fate for good? βWhat truth is buried in Rudra's past that everyone keeps throwing at him?
