A Panhala Mystery
The stones have a pulse. The walls have a memory.

Manoj and Aditi didn't come to Panhala to make history—they came to admire it. But when a shifting stone reveals a cryptic code etched in 17th-century script, a casual weekend trek turns into a desperate race to safeguard a legacy.

Deep within the Sahyadri mist, a secret lies buried: the "Iron Veins" of the citadel. To the world, it’s a myth. To a group of ruthless looters, it’s a payday. To Manoj and Aditi, it is a sacred trust that must be protected at all costs.

The Mission: Solve it. Save it. Leave no trace.

Armed with nothing but their wits, a frayed map, and a deep reverence for the past, the duo must navigate a labyrinth of hidden tunnels and ancient traps. But in these shadows, every step is a gamble. Can they outsmart a team of high-tech mercenaries without breaking the very history they’re trying to save?

Inside the Issue:

The Fort as a Character: Experience Panhala like never before—from the towering Teen Darwaza to the claustrophobic depths of the Andhar Bavadi.

Brain Over Brawn: Watch a duo that uses historical knowledge and deductive reasoning to outmaneuver physical threats.

A Race Against Time: As the monsoon clouds gather, the trail grows cold. Every second counts when the enemy is dismantling the past for profit.

"In the silence of the basalt, the truth is breathing. We just have to listen before they tear it apart."

Why It’s a Must-Read:

Modern Thrills, Ancient Secrets: A "National Treasure" style mystery rooted in the rugged soul of Maharashtra.

Ethical Stakes: A rare thriller where the heroes' goal is to prevent a discovery from being exploited.

Stunning Visual Potential: Imagine the contrast of modern flashlights cutting through centuries-old dust and the jagged silhouettes of the Western Ghats.
