At just twenty-five, Aarna Ahuja has already become one of the city's most sought-after psychiatrists. Brilliant, compassionate, and disarmingly warm, she has built a reputation for healing minds others have given up on. But sudden success comes with shadows-and when a new patient enters her office with chilling accounts of murders no one else seems to know about, Aarna's perfect life begins to fracture..
Detective Ray, her closest friend, is already chasing shadows. Victims are piling up, clues vanish as quickly as they appear, and the only thread binding the crimes seems to be Aarna's patient. Ray trusts Aarna-but trust has limits. Every murder drags them deeper into a maze of half-truths, hidden memories, and dangerous obsession.
As secrets rise to the surface, loyalties are tested. A patient who may know too much. A detective torn between love and duty. A psychiatrist forced to confront traumas she has long buried.
The line between sanity and madness blurs with every turn, until Aarna finds herself entangled in a deadly game where every choice carries a price.
Because sometimes the mind is the most dangerous weapon of all...
In a world built on trust and lies who is really pulling the strings?
And the question remains: when the final mask falls, who will you believe?
