The Girl in Chains

Kill the target. Kill the evidence. Kill yourself. A killer who had never fired a gun in her life—until she took a perfect headshot. A puppet who didn’t know she had strings. A detective chasing ghosts through her grief. At a packed rally in Delhi, a young woman calmly raises a pistol and executes a cabinet minister. Then, without hesitation, she turns the gun on herself. The media screams terrorism. The public whispers suicide. But CBI officer Simone Singh sees something colder. A setup. While nursing her dying mother and fending off shadows from her past, Simone is hurled into the most personal case of her life. The assassin left behind no motive, no trail—just a single whispered name: Daayan. Worse, Simone’s own partner, Inspector Lucas, is hiding a secret that could destroy everything they’ve built. As the body count rises and Delhi spirals into chaos, Simone must uncover a conspiracy woven through power and silence. But in a game where everyone is a pawn, exposing the truth might be the very thing that finally breaks her. Twisted, taut, and emotionally explosive, The Girl in Chains is a heart-stopping race against the truth that was never meant to survive.
