In the heart of India, as the world teeters on the brink of World War I, Athelstan King, a skilled British secret agent, is tasked with the daunting mission of preventing a holy war.

Despite his initial mistrust, King finds himself drawn to Yasmini's wisdom and the shared desire to avert the impending conflict. Together, they navigate a treacherous landscape of political intrigue, cultural divides, and personal betrayals.

Yet, as they inch closer to unraveling the conspiracy, they face unforeseen dangers, testing the limits of their courage and challenging their very identities.
