A royal socialite. An underdog artist. A struggling Michelin-star chef. A young widow. An ambitious wife & her rule-bound husband. And a retired private detective who knows far too much.
Seven residents. Five secrets.
One blackmailer. One killer.
Or perhaps more?
Welcome to Rafflesia, a notorious residential society named after the world's largest parasitic flower, a place where appearances bloom beautifully while darkness quietly rots beneath the surface.
Each of the residents harbour a secret.
Each of them has made a choice they hope never surfaces.
And someone has been profiting from their silence.
When an obligatory dinner ends in murder, the carefully maintained balance begins to crumble. As investigating Officer Annie digs deeper, the line between victim and culprit starts to blur.
Stuck between the devil and the deep blue sea, they discover that some debts can never be repaid.
A dark Noir murder mystery about secrets, morality, and the uncomfortable truth that sometimes there are no right decisions, only consequences.
Dynamic entrepreneur and bestselling author Siddharth Maheshwari has four hit novels under his belt now releasing his fifth. An alumnus of the University of Warwick, UK, he seamlessly weaves his diverse interests in history, philosophy, science, geography, and art into his writing. His global travels enrich his stories with rich cultural insights. A lover of plays, musicals, and exotic food, Maheshwari indulges in dark chocolates and red wine, all while continuing to captivate readers with his thrilling narratives. He resides in Delhi with his parents, his wife Sakshi who has designed all the illustrations and sketches for his books and their two children.
