Latest chapter:When the Dust Refused to Settle
The stark, ethereal beauty of Leh masks a creeping malignancy, and forensic anthropologist Divyansh Dutt is poised to be consumed by its tendrils. Seeking sanctuary from the spectral echoes of his past investigations, he arrives at the remote Anant Vraj guesthouse, only to find himself ensnared in an intricate tapestry of disquieting phenomena: the lingering miasma of a brutal, unsolved murder that stains the very stones of the place, the locals'''' cryptic warnings that whisper on the wind like half-formed prayers, and his own encounter at the bustling market with a gaunt crone clutching a box of what appeared to be ossified fragments, trophies of some unspeakable rite. When a mysterious codex, inscribed with a maddeningly alien script, and the grim realities of a police inquiry into the market''''s macabre discovery intertwine, Divyansh is inexorably drawn toward the horrifying revelation that something ancient and malevolent has been roused from its slumber, or perhaps, lay dormant, patiently biding its time. Is he merely an ephemeral guest within Anant Vraj''''s crumbling walls, or has he become the designated offering in a danse macabre where the steps are marked by blood, and the final curtain falls into the abyss of eternal dread?
