Fifteen years ago, a fire consumed one of
Lankara's most powerful households. The
world was given a story. A memorial was
built. The nation moved on.

Not everyone did.

Aanya Mehta has spent nine years covering
the Survara Conspiracy as a journalist.
When a retired intelligence officer is
found dead in his locked apartment — three
days before his scheduled meeting with
her — she realises that what is missing
is not a detail. It is the truth.

Across the city, a man known only as Kabir
moves quietly through Survara with a locked
metal box, a list of names, and six years
of patience behind him.

And at the centre of it all stands Lankara's
Prime Minister — delivering a perfect speech
at a public memorial, mourning a man
he destroyed.

Three lives are converging on a buried truth.
The clock is running.

A gripping literary thriller about power,
buried secrets and the price of justice.
