The Emperor’s Riddles

Product Description

Nine Murders. Nine Clues. Nine Locations. One Secret.

When author, Om Patnaik, receives a frantic message from historian, Ram Mathur, he rushes to the ghats of Varanasi only to find that Ram has been brutally murdered-his right eye gouged out and a cryptic letter carved on his face.

A posthumous email from Ram to his astrophysicist daughter, Sia, holds the first clue to a chilling conundrum. Desperate for answers, Sia urges Om to join forces with her to unravel the truth. Meanwhile officer, Parag Suri, and his team uncover a sinister link to a string of bizarre murders across India.

The quest of Om and Sia takes them on an extraordinary journey of riddles across India, at the heart of which lies a 2000-year-old royal secret belonging to one of India’s greatest emperors.

The Emperor’s Riddles, a bestseller when it was first published in India, is a gripping tale where history melds with mystery to keep you hooked till the last page is turned.
