Proceeds to Project Why

Amazon-bestselling author Damyanti Biswas is donating all her proceeds from her debut crime novel You Beneath Your Skin to Project WHY and @StopAcidAttacks

Our share of the proceeds will be used for women empowerment programs.

The story of You Beneath Your Skin was written while volunteering at Project WHY. It is an intelligent, socially engaged thriller which talks about the issues that are faced by women and underprivileged communities in Delhi.

Check it out, and if it catches your interest, please buy the book.
