When Mumbai's monsoon rages, even the smartest homes harbor deadly secrets.
In the sealed study of his high-tech Juhu mansion, tech entrepreneur Anirudh Sharma is found dead from carbon monoxide poisoning-killed by a generator that should have been impossible to start. The only witness? His extraordinarily trained German Shepherd, Raja, who sits calmly beside the body as if nothing happened.
The crime appears impossible. The solution seems obvious. Both assumptions are catastrophically wrong.
Inspector Meera Joshi thinks she's investigating Mumbai's most sophisticated murder: a brilliant killer who turned cutting-edge animal conditioning into the perfect weapon. The evidence is compelling-Raja can perform forty-seven complex tasks triggered by specific sounds, including operating mechanical devices. Expert testimony confirms a dog could theoretically commit this crime.
But as monsoon waters recede and secrets surface, Meera discovers that the most elaborate theories often hide the simplest, most brutal truths.
In rain-soaked Mumbai, where technology meets tradition and wealth borders poverty, the real murder weapon isn't artificial intelligence-it's eight years of casual cruelty finally demanding payment.
