An Apocalyptic Mumbai Speculative Novel of Nuclear Threat, Religious Fervor, and Missing Lovers

As an imminent nuclear conflict between India and Pakistan brings Mumbai to the brink of evacuation and destruction, Sarita ventures into the panicked, barricaded city to find her missing husband, Karun, a physicist who disappeared after work.

Meanwhile, Jaz, a gay Muslim man, searches the chaotic streets for his own vanished lover—who is also Karun. Joining forces amidst armed sectarian militias, apocalyptic cults, and sightings of a miraculous goddess named Devi, Sarita and Jaz navigate Mumbai's final hours.

Why You’ll Love This Book

Manil Suri concludes his acclaimed India trilogy with a bold, speculative apocalyptic thriller blending mythological allegory and urban chaos. Perfect for readers of Amitav Ghosh, Suketu Mehta, and Mohsin Hamid.
