The Lie Between Stations at Platform Nine in August

By Prashant Mishra

When cybersecurity analyst Yuvan Bhat spots a supposedly missing person lurking in the background of a Nagpur livestream, he pulls a thread that unravels a manufactured romance, buried evidence, and a cold case the city never bothered to solve. Alongside a grieving musician whose missing parent sits at the centre of the mystery, Yuvan chases a trail of unclaimed courier parcels through the crumbling corridors of an old apartment block, where every clue costs someone something real. But the closer he gets to the truth, the more he risks exposing a secret of his own that could destroy far more than the crime ever did. In a race against a powerful sponsor and a scandal that could silence a benefit concert before it begins, Yuvan must decide how much truth anyone can afford to survive.
