Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The title ‘THUMBS-UP FOR RUMA,’ is one of the most popular kindle titles. It's a tragedy, pitches upon the life a young lively girl who attracts us with her artless musings and innocent charm. Though it’s a heart-wrenching narrative, a tragedy to gnaw at the heart yet, the title stands justified to be toned in positive. It could very well be attributed to the eternal sprightly, playful and sober child who brings life to one’s memories of childhood. The title is also relevant in one more sense that which the girl lived through, faced straight the unseemly troubles, her courage and choices mark her above an ordinary child. At the centre of the novel is Ruma, a cheerful, little bubbly girl, though with a torn soul to steer through with a terrific cast of other characters chiefly, Nirupalli, a loving, considerate nurse who had been searching her, since they parted away. At first blush, the story seems to be a fount of humour and chugs along smoothly, it’s when Nirupalli and Ruma meet each other and remain at the loggerheads. Ruma is an epitome of childish innocence and playfulness, plays down the serious and calm attitude of the nurse leaving her defeated and embittered. Through a well-knit conspiracy of her twin elder brothers, in possession of great wealth and power, she is forcefully rushed to a far-off place of which she hardly bears a hint and captivated in a dark, lone room, from where she makes a successful escape with the aid of a by-passer, a random man. In the other link of the same chain, the nurse-maid who had been made to treat Ruma while she was ill, is late and lamenting to discover that she caught a deadly infection that anyway could have passed through her into little child’s, causing perhaps her death if not treated medically for that very rare condition. She accidentally chances upon to overhear the ill-designs of the sinister twins, and secretly hurries back, now direly firm and decided to find the girl and help her destiny. A kind manager, Mrs Ranga who curiously is Nirupalli’s friend helps her flee with Amit, the gardener’s son to his village, in case she should be suspected by the police and face the trial if the truth comes up. Nirupalli, who stays with her during her pursuit to find Ruma, is caught unawares about the possible fact that her friend and Ruma are in direct touch but comes to discover it only after it’s extremely late. And the prudence caused her greater sadness when she visits the village where Ruma was supposed to be with the gardener’s son and finds her no longer living. Towards the end of the story, one can figure that the hope being crushed when Ruma dies out in the flames of a merciless, untamed fire-break out. Well, that’s for the debate and undecided reality because some people held it too that Ruma saved her life and again the evidence that no one saw her burning first-hand even the remains of the ashes were not revealing. Ruma after escaping the place of captivity seeks shelter in a big mansion that belongs to a renowned Bengali family who was kind enough to have her. As luck would have it, the child steadily but sadly morphed into a servant to them. She had not spent many peaceful days when another debacle fell in her way, changing her course of life for always. Ruma by fault and accident, happened to kill an intruder who jumped off the boundary in dark, and rushed towards her, she found nothing less than a poker around to defend herself. Just while she was turning round of herself, the intruder thrust into the long, unkind neck of the poker, dripping with hot blood. Mr and Mrs Ranga tone down the nail-biting tension in the air around though all the narrative. The prime mover of the villainy receives a justified end with the younger brother killing the older one, following a heated argument, and landing himself up in jail.
