In the heart of Delhi's churning underbelly, where forgotten carnivals rot beneath gleaming Metro tracks, engineer Meera Saxena strikes bone during a routine dig—a child's skeleton clutching a rusted Appu Ghar elephant. The touch ignites blackouts: screams echoing from a 2003 swing ride, a red ribbon unraveling in bloodied hands, a twin's face vanishing into shadows she can't name.
As the city seals the site in bureaucratic silence, Meera claws at the truth: her sister Anushka, erased from family albums and death records, wasn't a victim of chance. She was collateral in a ruthless cover-up by industrial titan Vikas Oberoi, whose faulty empire hid murder behind mechanical failure.
Allied with haunted journalist Aarav Tripathi—whose father plummeted from that same swing—Aarav unearths a web of bribes, falsified logs, and a betrayal that binds their bloodlines. One man's greed buried a girl alive; now, unearthing her could topple a dynasty—or drag them into the grave.
But in Delhi, where concrete devours secrets, the deepest cut waits in the dark: what if the monster Meera hunts was once her father's closest ally?
Shadows of Appu Ghar: A City’s Buried Truths A pulse-pounding psychological thriller of shattered memories, lethal loyalties, and a metropolis that never forgets its kills.
