It took me seven years to write the book but I’ll be quicker with the sequel.” The first of a trilogy the story is about Abbey doing his MBA. Book two follows Abbey into the corporate world and the third will be about Abbey pursuing his dreams.”Abhijit is a human resources professional and is currently posted in the US.
