But as days pass, their lives become more entangled, and the past reaches deeper than either could have imagined. Will Gautam and Shivani uncover the truths that brought them together?

She had stumbled upon his decapitated head floating in the muddy water of the creek, days after he had been reported missing. The sight and smell were etched into her mind, haunting her every waking moment. The once idyllic creek, where she used to play as a child, now seemed like a sinister and foreboding place.
