About the Book
The Lone Wolf is Colonel Ashok Tara's story, charting the course of his celebrated yet quiet life as a member of the armed forces.
Neha Dwivedi's writing captures the hero's humble beginnings, his life-altering experiences, and offers a blow-by-blow account of a seminal event in South Asian history — the rescue of Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman's family during the closing days of the 1971 war.
As much as it is the story of Colonel Ashok Tara's bravery, it is also the story of a bleak yet victorious period in Bangladesh's quest for freedom.
Neha Dwivedi, a Kargil hero's daughter, is a doctor by profession and a writer by passion. Writing brought her solace after the loss of her father, and she now devotes herself to bringing untold stories of valour to the forefront. Her first book was Vijyant at Kargil: The Biography of a War Hero.
