We Were All Wrong is a 78,000-word crime thriller set in Chennai. ACP Vikrant has spent three years hunting Dharma, a shadowy criminal mastermind behind land grabs and staged deaths across the city. When an accountant offers to expose Dharma’s identity, Vikrant believes he’s finally won—until he finds his fiancée, Dr. Meera, kidnapped and used as bait. Vikrant shoots Dharma during the rescue and walks away convinced the nightmare is over.
It isn’t.
Weeks later, Vikrant’s former college love, Tejashree—the woman he once abandoned—reappears as a witness to new murders bearing Dharma’s signature. Vikrant’s unresolved guilt compels him to protect her, but Meera notices fractures in Tejashree’s story: fresh surgical scars, unexplained knowledge, and a disturbing fixation on her transplanted left hand. As evidence mounts that Dharma survived, Vikrant must confront the possibility that guilt has blinded him—and that the woman he once failed may now be orchestrating everything.
If Vikrant chooses wrong again, he won’t just lose the case—he’ll lose Meera, his integrity, and any chance at redemption.
we were all wrong is a story about what guilt costs — the cases it closes, the truths it hides, the monsters it accidentally creates. It asks whether the people we failed can ever stop being our responsibility, and whether survival and redemption can coexist in the same person.
