Shadow: Code of Silence
A Geopolitical Thriller Across the India–Pakistan Fault Lines
When a rising Indian diplomat, Arvind Pratap Singh, is killed in a high-profile bombing in Kabul, a fragile peace initiative between India and Pakistan collapses overnight. But amid the smoke and diplomatic fallout, two unlikely figures are drawn into a deeper conspiracy: Wing Commander Sohail Mirza “Shadow”, a battle-tested Pakistani fighter pilot, and Ananya Rao, an Indian foreign service officer with secrets of her own.
As tensions between the two nuclear-armed neighbors escalate, Shadow and Ananya uncover evidence that the attacks were orchestrated not by rogue militants—but by a powerful international network led by a ghostlike strategist known only as Blackwell, and his extremist ally, Mullah Ahab. Their goal? Destabilize South Asia, fracture alliances, and profit from chaos.
From fiery air battles over disputed borders to backchannel diplomacy in Geneva and deadly surveillance in Istanbul, Shadow Protocol unfolds as a high-stakes thriller that blends espionage, military realism, and political intrigue. While war hawks on both sides call for blood, Shadow and Ananya work behind the scenes—sometimes at odds, sometimes together—to prevent a full-scale regional war.
