*"The Lion of Awadh: A Prince Caged in Iron"* is a gripping historical drama that plunges readers into the politically charged world of colonial India, telling the untold story of Wazir Ali Khan, the exiled prince of Awadh. Set in the late 18th century, this tale follows young Wazir, adopted heir to the throne, as he navigates betrayal, power struggles, and an imperial grip that seeks to crush his spirit. His uncle's scheming, the British machinations led by Sir John Shore, and the infamous "Massacre of Benares" weave a story rich with rebellion, loyalty, and the high cost of honor.
