When an overworked engineer returns home for a family function, she doesn’t expect to uncover a seventy-year-old mystery hidden in her grandfather’s trunk.
Ruhani Oberoi’s life in Hyderabad is all deadlines and late-night calls—until a surprise trip to Amritsar delivers more than rest. Among old letters and heirlooms, she finds a sepia photograph of her grandfather with a stranger, marked only “Dilli—1947.”
With childhood friend Samrat at her side, Ruhani follows the faint trail from Punjab’s festive courtyards to Delhi’s forgotten lanes. Each clue—an unfamiliar name, an ancient door, an elder’s fading memory—pulls her closer to a friendship torn apart by Partition and to the truth her grandfather never spoke.
Blending family warmth, historical mystery, and a quiet journey of self-discovery, The Last Address: Ballimaran is a moving novel about love, memory, and the unbreakable bonds that outlive time and borders.
