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.

I have always wanted to write a book that I want to read and I love crime stories with a touch of darkness. The characters that I created are not perfect. They all have flaws, just like all of us and I love to play with those flaws. I created them by heart and my love to them is equal. The word I created in this story sets in a distant future, where humans were survivors of a gargantuan apocalyptic disaster. It changes the way of living but in some aspects, but humanity stays the same. The cycle repeats itself and you can always find similarities. I own all the copyrights of these stories and I will take matter seriously to plagiarism. I hope that you enjoy my stories and can be entertained by them. Happy Reading !
