Description

A peaceful Indian city is rocked by the gruesome murder of a research student. ACP Daniel Raikar initiates an investigation that reveals nothing. Everything from forensics to autopsies and heuristics to hunch is used in vain: there are no clues, no links, no breaks! More attacks on researchers follow. The city is gripped in fear, but for Daniel there is nothing to face except a bunch of questions that scream for answers.

Who are the killers? Why should anyone have such an enmity toward a group of researchers? Is the cause of the killing hidden mysteriously in their research? Is there much more to it than meets the eye? As Daniel races against time to save further loss of lives he drives into the most dangerous odyssey of his professional life. Dodging bullets and chasing crooks what he finds is both bizarre as well as fateful.
