When a shipment of guns goes missing in the Arabian Sea, the trail leads from a shady Mumbai gangster to a high-profile arms dealer in Delhi. As ACP Adithya Menon races against time to put the pieces of the puzzle together, he learns that the plot is far murkier, and the stakes much higher than anyone ever thought. For the road to the missing guns leads from Delhi to Balochistan and all the way to China via an ambitious new highway the Chinese government is building. If the guns, and the gunrunners are not stopped in their tracks, all of South Asia would soon be engulfed in a war from which there would emerge no winners.
And the only man who can stop the killings is, ironically, a secretive hired killer known only as the Baloch.
