Shadows After Midnight

A story of secrets, survival, and the dark side of desire.

Sohana Khan has always lived in the shadows-of wealth, of power, of privilege. Tired of her middle-class life and desperate to belong, she slips into the world of the elite, pretending she fits. Glamorous parties. Glittering lies. And one unforgettable night.

But when the roads empty and the party fades, Sohana witnesses something horrifying: a girl dragged into a black car, a scream swallowed by silence, and a golden bracelet left behind-marked with a single letter: A.

The next day, the news breaks.
Ayla Kapoor, the glamorous heiress, has vanished without a trace.

Now, Sohana holds the only clue... and it could destroy her. Someone knows she saw what happened. Someone is watching. As she follows the trail of secrets-through a hidden locket, a long-buried family past, and a web of dangerous lies-Sohana is forced to ask:

How far will the powerful go to protect their sins?

And is she ready to pay the price for the truth?All Rights Reserved
