Maelstrom Rising

From a veteran of the army's counter-terrorist operations an action-packed sequel to The Siege of Warwan

'All contact with flight AI-376 from Kuala Lumpur to New Delhi has been lost since 0140 hours.'

Colonel Dusty Bharadwaj of the Special Forces is waiting for Dr Ayesha Mir whom he first met while serving in Kashmir when news breaks that the aircraft she is travelling on has disappeared. Ayesha as deadly as she is ravishing had once killed a Pakistani terrorist commander and helped Dusty's team eliminate a number of militants in the Warwan Valley. If the plane has been hijacked Dusty fears she will not be spared.

Even as the mystery of the Paper Backsing jetliner deepens Dusty is summoned by the national security advisor and sent on a secret Paper Backsion to the Maldives. If rogue elements in the military in cahoots with the ISIS take over the coup brewing in the island nation can be devastating for India. But what Dusty stumbles upon is much more menacing: the Paper Backsing aircraft and a plot to wipe out Mumbai.
