The Second Attack is a revenge story of a 1984 anti-Sikh riot victim written by Dr. Rohan Bedi.

From the book's blurb:

An Action Packed Novel of a Victim Turned Predator

This is the story of a young 11 year old boy Shabeg Josh Singh. During the 1984 anti-Sikh riots his father Jagtar Josh Singh is killed. His mother Amarjit recognises one person in the mob. Shabeg moves to Toronto where he is now called Josh. For years he leads a normal life. Amarjit bottles up her frustrations on the long wait for justice. After his divorce Josh’s mind gets drawn to his dark past. At the age of 44 he has a chance meeting with a stranger. He is indoctrinated into the Khalistan freedom struggle and radicalised. He receives training abroad and then carries out two missions in India. Foreign powers support him. While Josh’s mission is personal, he gets involved in something way bigger than he could imagine. This is the story of how these complex armed missions unfold and how he gets his revenge. He also finds his soul mate along the way. It is not clear if he will survive or what future his love has.

The Second Attack is a novel about pain and closure. It draws on historical events and religious beliefs. The whole concept of justice is based on Karma and the idea that what goes around comes around. Victims of circumstances need closure. But what if justice is denied? The novel brings out the state of mind of a Sikh committed to the Khalistan freedom struggle. Their personal pain and strong desire for justice and freedom. It goes to the root of Sikh beliefs by tracing them from scripture and history. It shows how radicalisation happens. How all events are connected. This is an action fiction founded on true facts. Dr. Rohan Bedi offers a convincing and authentic two-hour read. He shows us that reconciliation and healing are essential for India’s future.
