The Night Train List of Lake Road

By Adeeba Rashid

When Avni Kulkarni finds a transit card logging journeys she never made, a single anomaly pulls her into the suffocating heart of a gated township outside Gurugram where a ghost story was engineered to steal land and a missing parent left behind only silence. Alongside Rohan, a grieving musician who refuses to accept the official account of his mother's disappearance, Avni uncovers a secret society, a fabricated legend, and a set of voice messages that could not exist. With an engagement announcement designed to bury the truth and a friend trapped in a controlling relationship drawing her back to the crime scene again and again, Avni must break the law to save the evidence before the closed circle of suspects closes around her completely.
