About this audiobook
A carved 1,400-year-old murder accusation just became the most dangerous artifact in modern India.
A seventh-century stone inscription. A 1,400-year-old murder. A dynasty that has killed to keep both buried.
When epigraphist Dr. Kaveri Anand uncovers a concealed panel behind a Pallava rock relief at Mahabalipuram, she expects a career-defining discovery. What she finds is something far more dangerous — a meticulous accusation carved in stone by a sculptor who knew it would cost him his life, authenticated with a royal seal, and pointing directly at a bloodline that never stopped killing to protect its secret.
That bloodline runs straight into the Somasundaram family, modern Chennai’s most powerful dynasty. Fourteen centuries of bribery, murder, and buried truth stand between Kaveri and the world knowing what the stone says. Now the stone is speaking — and the family is mobilizing.
