About this title

Synopsis

He built his career erasing dirty money from the world's cleanest banks. Now someone wants him to build the door back in.

Gaurav Mishra thought he was done. One last sweep to bury a criminal empire's fortune for good, and the plan was simple: walk away, stay invisible, let the shadows keep his secrets. Instead, a grey-suited stranger with a folder full of leverage hands him an offer he can't refuse - and one condition he doesn't understand yet.

The job sends him to Phuket under a manufactured identity, chasing a dead man's ledger that should never have existed. But paradise is a stage set, and someone already knows he's coming. A blade in a dark street. A stranger inside his hotel room. A woman who may already be a hostage in a resort no one is supposed to remember.

As the trail pulls him deeper - through a fixer who pours tea like intelligence briefings, a handler who trusts no one, least of all him, and a network built to hide the kind of crime governments pretend doesn't exist - Gaurav is left with one choice: stay the ghost who quietly cleans up other people's evil, or step into the light and put his name on what he's about to do.

Some systems are built so the shadows always win. Shadow Code is about the one man trying to rewrite the rules from the inside - before the next transfer clears, and the next body doesn't.

A tech-noir financial thriller for readers who like their conspiracies close enough to check their own bank statement.
