The Empire’s Unsolved Mystery

Description

A crime so perfect that no detective, no officer and no investigation agency in the world could make sense of it.

A cricketer — gone. No evidence. No notes. No trace. Just silence where a man used to be.

Was he still alive? Was he dead? Was it the work of a human — or something else entirely? Something that no rational mind could explain or prepare for?

One detective made a promise to himself — he would find the answer. But as the case pulled him deeper into a world that defied everything he knew, the question was no longer just whether he could crack the mystery.

The question was whether the mystery would crack him first.

Some crimes have a criminal. Some have a motive. And some — the ones that keep you awake at night — have neither.

This is one of those.
