From the sun-basked streets of Athens to the boulevards of Paris; from the rustic city of Kolkata to the ancient temples in the south of India...veneration, devotion or faith isn't the word. Murder is. A journey steeped in history which will suck in the unwary.
It's a rainy day in the southern city of Mamallapuram, India. Dia Demoore is on her way to meet her friend musician, Jean Pouvrier. She finds herself captive, and is shot. She leaves behind a clue, causing a rather unexpected stir in a long-standing friendship. Thousands of miles away, in Paris, Jean reads the newspaper, and is shaken by the news of his friend's death. Little does he know...about himself, or what lies ahead.
Jean's music links him to Ela, an Athenian tour guide, and they undertake a journey with heartwrenching music as a secret unfolds with everyone unaware.

Whispers in the Dark
Fame is a performance, and the greatest illusions happen behind the scenes. When Evelyn Hart, a celebrated actress, vanishes from her hotel room without a trace, the world is left grasping for answers. No witnesses. No forced entry. No sign of struggle. Just a few cryptic diary entries, a collection of old photographs, and a past that refuses to stay buried. Detectives Adrian Cole and Madison Lane, once childhood friends turned reluctant partners, are called in to investigate the disappearance. Their reputations precede them-Adrian, known for his calculated approach and sharp intuition, and Madison, relentless in her pursuit of justice. But years of distance and unresolved emotions make working together more complicated than either of them expected. As they unravel Evelyn's past, they discover a tangled web of deception, power, and betrayal leading straight to Victor Calloway, a renowned director with a talent for crafting perfect illusions-on and off the screen. He was once Evelyn's closest ally, but something dark simmered beneath their friendship. And now, as Adrian and Madison get closer to the truth, they realize someone is erasing every trace of Evelyn's existence, silencing those who dare to speak. With every step forward, the danger intensifies. Someone is watching. Someone is pulling strings. And the deeper they dig, the harder it becomes to tell friend from foe. But in the midst of the chaos, Adrian and Madison find themselves facing another mystery-the one between them. Years of separation couldn't erase the bond they once had, but will this case bring them back together or break them apart for good? Because in a world where deception is an art form, some disappearances are meant to stay unsolved.Lengkap

The moment I was in front of him, I grabbed hold of his collar with my both hands. As I yell, "Are you cheating on me, Shahzain?" Seems like I took him by surprise, it took him a whole minute to realize what was happening right now. And the moment he did, he loosen my hold on him and pushed me, which had me stumbling back. "Even if I do, it shouldn't matter. I was forced into this marriage, Sobia." He yells back. "I didn't have a choice. But you had. You shouldn't have agreed to this marriage." Only if he knew, all my life it wasn't me who got to select the choice. Neither is this one, the most important one in my life. "I won't tolerate this. Either you leave me or leave her." I stated, anger clouding my senses. He walked towards me and took a hold of my chin in his hand and stated clearly. "And where's the fun in that? You ruined my life. I promised to ruin you till death do us a part." I pushed him hard. I had already suffered much from my so-called family. And I refused to get suffered by my husband. It's all about the limit. The moment I had my limit of misery and pain, I will end all of this. "Are you sure, it's not the other way around?" A humorless chuckle escapes my lips, as my darkest shade of eyes met his grey ones. "Also, just wanted to correct you, my dearest husband. You can't ruin what's already ruined, Shahzain." "And if I find out that you kept meeting her behind my back. I will ruin you and that lover of yours." With that I stormed out of our room, making up my mind.Lengkap
