"She spent her life studying the earth to find something solid. She never expected the ground to speak back in a voice she thought she'd lost forever."

At twenty-seven, Shruti is a woman made of stone. As a government geologist and soil scientist, she understands the earth's layers perfectly, but she has spent nearly a decade burying her own. To the world, she is the "Strong Girl"-stoic, unreachable, and unbreakable. But inside, she is still the eighteen-year-old girl standing in the rain, haunted by the ghost of Saunak, her first love and mentor who vanished into the Kashmiri mist with a final, cryptic WhatsApp message: "Forget and forgive me."
When a disastrous blind date arranged by her cousin Aarav finally shatters her protective shell, Shruti is forced to confront the void in her heart. In a twist of fate, her work sends her to the most dangerous, restricted rural sector of Kashmir-the very place where Saunak was last seen.
There, she finds herself under the protection of a specialized unit of masked soldiers. These men are phantoms: they never show their faces, they speak in robotic, filtered voices, and they have traded their names for code names. At their head is the Captain, a man whispered to be a "God" of the mountains, as lethal as he is mysterious.
As Shruti digs into the frozen Kashmiri soil to study its secrets, she realizes the Captain is watching her with an intensity that feels dangerously familiar. In a land where no one reveals their face, Shruti must decide if she is brave enough to unmask the truth-even if it means discovering that some things are buried for a reason.
✨ Enjoy the emotional yet humourous story of Shruti.
