A clerk called Coinman can't stop jingling the coins in his pocket. It's a simple addiction, but it's one that comes to rule his life. His wife, Imli, an actress who's so obsessed with her craft that she becomes her characters at home, bans coins from the house. It goes horribly wrong when his co-workers conspire in their own way, sending a number of them on previously unknown paths.

Acclaim:

"This articulate, wryly amusing creation focuses on simple situations that often have an unexpected, almost magical, twist." 
~IndieReader, 5 Stars.

"A quirky, heartfelt novel about finding your identity - and keeping it. In Pawan Mishra's oddly charming novel, readers are welcomed into the strangely neurotic, passionate, and unfulfilled existence of Coinman. The author raises the banality of normal life to new heights within this novel, and does so in an amusing and thought-provoking way. The story is uniquely enjoyable, and Coinman is a character that will be hard to forget." 
~SPR, 4 Stars.

"The book is a brilliant linguistic muddle and a stunning display of stylistic somersaults. The style of the novel is an intricate mosaic fashioned with care." 
~The Bibulous Bibliobiuli, 5 Stars.

"This story holds its own in the story world."
~Ana Elise Meyer, Author of "Marie"

Originality is often elusive, yet that's exactly what Pawan Mishra delivers. Humorous and highly entertaining, Coinman: An Untold Conspiracy proves an absolute gem and is recommended without reservation.
~BookViral

"This story was a breath of fresh air to read. The writing is superb and the characters are amazingly original. The author weaves together humor and insight into the nature of humanity to create a masterful piece. A must read!"
~Sara Angelo, Author of "Drift"

It's the last year of high school, and everything has changed . . . ***** After a summer spent in the Philippines, Lara Dela Cruz is eager to start her senior year and, most importantly, reunite with her three besties. But what she did not expect was to show up on the first day of school to all three of her friends now in relationships. Fighting for their attention, catching some new and confusing feelings for long-time frenemy James, and wading through the pressures of post-high-school plans all have Lara reeling. And to make matters worse, Lara's beautiful and untrustworthy cousin conveniently appears and wiggles her way right between her and James' budding relationship. Feeling like a third wheel in more ways than one, Lara must learn to accept that change is inevitable, love is complicated, and being the odd one out is sometimes where inner power is found.
