Detective Arjun Arora feels his life is crumbling around him. His father has
passed away, and he cannot forgive the corrupt police officer who sent Arjun
into a coma a year back. And then, a young widow visits him and presses him
to take on a new case: to investigate her husband's mysterious death. Rohit
Vats was a pharmaceutical company executive who had recently returned
home to Delhi from a work trip to China. Soon after, he turned up in a seedy
part of Kolkata-dead.
Was it a love affair gone wrong, geo-political intrigue, or corporate rivalry
which led to Vats' death? Arjun finds that Vats might have been looking into
illegal wildlife trafficking and zoonotic diseases like SARS. Increasingly, it
appears that the answer to the mystery might lie in China.
