Krishna Udayasankar Livres

When Charulata Ramachandran's brother, Ravi, dies unexpectedly in an accident, she returns from the US to Mumbai. She soon stumbles on something that suggests a more sinister game is in play. Her suspicions that Ravi may have been murdered are dismissed by the police, so Charu, along with the retired-policeman-turned-detective Anand and Ravi's best friend David tries to piece things together. Her life is thrown in disarray in the process. As Charu's discovery brings to light the intricate details of an immaculate blackmailing scheme, she must not only brave the imminent threat to her own life, but also grapple with the terrifying possibility that perhaps her brother was not the honest, decent man she had thought him to be. Can Charu deal with the horrifying truth to unravel the twisted threads of a conspiracy that has left her brother, and others, dead? Does she dare find out who killed her brother and, more importantly, why? In the end, like the farside of the moon, everyone has a face that has never been seen. Does Charu have it in her to find the other side?

HONOUR. DESIRE. VENGEANCE. Aryavarta – the ancient realm of the noble. For generations, the Firstborn dynasty of scholar-sages, descendants of Vasishta Varuni and protectors of the Divine Order on earth, has dominated here. For just as long, the Angirasa family of Firewrights, weapon-makers to the kings and master inventors, has defied them. In the aftermath of the centuries-long conflict between the two orders, the once-united empire of Aryavarta lies splintered, a shadow of its former glorious self. Now, the last Secret Keeper of the Firewrights is dead, killed by a violent hand, and the battle for supreme power in the empire is about to begin. As mighty powers hurtle towards a bloody conflict, Govinda Shauri, cowherd-turned-prince and now Commander of the armies of Dwaraka, must use all his cunning to counter deception and treachery if he is to protect his people and those whom he loves. But who holds the key to the fantastic and startling knowledge of the Firewrights, which in the wrong hands will bring doom upon the empire? And does Govinda have it in him to confront the dark secrets of his past and discover the true meaning of being Arya, of being noble?
