Tamil Mystery Fiction reaches a deeper psychological space through Nizhalai Oru Neethi, a special collection that brings two strong and thought-provoking thrillers into one volume. The first story, Nizhalai Oru Neethi, begins with a gentle love track. It feels warm and pleasant at first. However, the mood changes soon because of Deepa’s unusual psychological problem. Deepa loves Azhagiri, an artist. Their bond grows stronger, but during intimate moments, she suddenly attempts to kill him. Her behaviour shocks him. She also struggles to understand why she reacts violently.
This search for an answer forms the heart of the story. As the couple explores the cause, the trail slowly leads them into past-life experiences. Each incident adds a new layer of tension. The narration moves briskly toward an unexpected climax. Regular readers may sense the twist midway, yet the experience remains intense. Subha’s writing carries emotion, suspense, and logic with smooth balance.
The second story, Suranga Paathai, shifts into a darker and more analytical space. Sumathi approaches psychiatrist Vindhyavasini with a strange confession. She claims to hear her dead husband’s voice. She also says this voice pushes her to kill three people. One person is already murdered. The mystery grows. Did Sumathi kill him? Or is someone else behind the crime? These questions slowly unfold as the novel progresses. This is not a simple crime story meant for casual reading. Instead, it demands attention. The three murders come with sharp logic and strong reasoning. When the explanation arrives, the reader experiences surprise and satisfaction. Each clue fits perfectly, which is a trademark of Subha’s storytelling. These two thrillers also highlight the authors’ long and successful literary journey.
