After his mother loses her battle against cancer, Andrew Donavan struggles through his childhood and teenage years. His wealthy father gives him the best education money could buy but unable to offer him love and compassion. They drift apart and Andrew ends up in a teaching position at the University of Victoria. But his heart is empty and soul yearns for adventure. So he escapes. He goes to Manali, a destination resort in the Himalayas where once as a young boy he had spent several months and had found his first love. He wonders if he would meet her again? In this far away place an ugly truth about his father emerges that changes his life, forever. He is compelled to embark on a mission that could not only put his life in jeopardy but also destroy his father. Distraught and confused he plunges himself irrationally into the riskiest solution of once and for all exposing the culprits responsible for Lalita's sad fate in order to bring justice to her and her family and hopefully find peace in his soul. Then something extraordinary happens. Andrew discovers an ugly truth about his father and he learns a strange fact about his relationship with Jyoti. His world comes crushing around him and he is now enraged and wants to overtly fight the villains including his own father. He is willing to take all the risks as the situation becomes do or die for him. To Andrew's amazement his father suddenly appears unannounced in Manali. Andrew is not sure what his father came to Manali for and refuses to even see him. Finally his father convinces Andrew to meet with him to hear out his side of the story. For the first time in his life Andrew's father opens his heart and reveals the truth to both Andrew and Jyoti. She is furious and wants nothing to do with Andrew or his father. But Andrew's father discloses the real purpose of his return to Manali and presents a plan to apprehend the people who were responsible for the violence towards Lalita. The plan is full of flaws but the persuasive nature of Andrew's father prevails. Together they all walk into a death trap. Will they all perish due to their flawed plan? Will Lalita's family ever get justice for what happened to Lalita? Will Jyoti meet the same fate as Lalita did twenty years ago? Does Andrew's father have an alternative plan that he will not share with his son? Answers to these questions are revealed by what Andrew does next. Unpredictable and utterly unique love triangle, Pink Balcony Silver Moon is a story of the untouchable class of India and their tumulus struggle of fighting for their rights by breaking centuries old shackles of traditions.
