Love, Obsession, and a Cursed Lodge: Discover The Unfinished Melody

-

 I’m excited to share my latest novella - The Unfinished Melody.


At just over 30 pages, it’s a compact story you can finish in a single sitting — but I hope its echoes will linger long after the final page. Set in the misty hills of Darjeeling, it weaves together themes of love, obsession, betrayal, and music that refuses to be silenced.

Here’s the blurb:

In the misty hills of Darjeeling, where music drifts through the cold winds and shadows cling to every corner, Abhimanyu searches relentlessly for Aarushi—the woman he loves, the voice he cannot forget. Her melodies once lit the world with promise, but now her trail has vanished into silence and whispers of tragedy.

A lodge with a cursed room. A death dismissed as suicide. An investigator who senses murder where others see despair. As love collides with betrayal and music mingles with blood, Abhimanyu is pulled into a haunting web of secrets that threatens to unravel not only Aarushi’s fate, but his own.

Dark, atmospheric, and unyielding, The Unfinished Melody is a tale of love tested by obsession, of truth buried beneath lies, and of melodies that refuse to die—even when silence tries to claim them.
