Historical Fiction Mythology Thriller Ashoka's Nine Unknown Modern India Partition Era Crime & Business

An ancient secret. Two rivals. Six decades of India.

The lives of Arvind Bagadia — a sharp-minded Marwari businessman from Kolkata — and Arbaaz Sheikh, a feared player in the Mumbai underworld, are unwillingly intertwined across six decades of post-independence India. From the carnage of Partition to the corridors of corporate power, their sinister rivalry plays out against the backdrop of India's most defining moments.

Both are unaware that what they seek and fight over is the very obstacle in realising an ancient secret that dates back to a time long forgotten — Emperor Ashoka's Nine Unknown Men and the Rasayana formula: the secret to immortality.

Ashwin Sanghi masterfully weaves threads of the past and present, fact and fiction, history and mythology, business and politics, love and hatred — into a chilling, multilayered narrative that keeps you turning pages till the very end.

"At almost 600 pages the pace never drags. The connection between Ashoka's ancient secret and modern India is what makes this an unputdownable read."

★★★★★

"The epilogue alone is worth the entire 600-page journey. The last few pages tie everything together in a way that left me completely stunned."
