What happens when you can’t trust those who have access to the nation’s most secret intelligence? As the country makes big economic strides, the arrest of a local arms dealer, Keshav Thakur, alerts the Research and Analysis Wing about a plot to abduct the country’s top nuclear scientist, Hamid Ansari, who is in possession of a unique nuclear fusion formula. Meanwhile, a military coup topples the democratic government of Myanmar. And a novel overriding device called Vita is stolen. And so begins a race against time for R&AW’s top agents, Vikram Aditya Singh and Ranbir Roy, as they work to unravel the complex web that ties these seemingly disparate events together. Each turn brings a new mystery: Who is the shadowy figure pulling the strings and just how far does his reach extend? Is Professor Hamid Ansari truly what he seems? What deep conspiracy is Pakistan’s finance minister involved in? With so many unanswered questions, do Vikram and Ranbir have the right target in their crosshairs? Will they succeed?
