Spectres of Vengeance (Paperback)

In a world where shadows conceal the truth and power is the ultimate prize, Amitabh Mehta, India’s resolute chief of intelligence, stands firm against corruption and terror.

Haunted by the legacy of the IC 814 hijacking, Amitabh has tirelessly safeguarded his nation through decades of combating terrorism, from the Khalistan movement to the serial bombings in Bombay and relentless attacks in Kashmir. Frustrated by indecisive politicians, he finds hope in a new prime minister―a charismatic strongman from Maharashtra with unprecedented public support.

As an Indian Air Force base is attacked, Amitabh proposes a bold solution: kill India’s enemies wherever they are. With the prime minister’s sanction, Amitabh spearheads a covert assassination programme, targeting high-priority enemies across the globe. However, a failed attempt on one of India’s most wanted terrorists reveals a mole within the government, leading to a frantic operation to capture the elusive terrorist. In their pursuit, they uncover a hidden power undermining India from within. Can this clandestine force be dismantled?
