Shadows of the Faultline

Sandran Thirukar, a scientist on the hit list of weapon-selling nations, has made weapons irrelevant. His breakthrough technology, Smatter, can neutralise anything, even nuclear missiles.

But can it confront his most formidable adversary yet, nature itself?

In the remote Himalayan village of Goutaal, the ground is giving way. Tremors return. Cracks deepen. The land is slowly sinking.

As Thirukar attempts the impossible, stabilising an entire village above a faultline, science is pushed to its limits and belief begins to fracture.

Can his Smatter technology withstand nature’s fury?
