"Thanks for writing this amazing piece of book Satya sir. The Line Held is one of the best reads I’ve had in a long time. What impressed me most was how you managed to tell such a gripping story without a conventional villain or hero, just ordinary people caught in extraordinary circumstances. You understand people so well, and that comes through in every character. There were quite a few moments when my eyes actually welled up. And to handle something as difficult and sensitive as Partition without slipping into religious hatred or political bitterness is no small achievement. I really enjoyed the book. Wow, there’s some magic in your pen! Hope we get to read much more from you."
