In a small village somewhere in rural Bangladesh an old man starts behaving in bizarre ways. Rashed, an undergraduate in Dacca, comes under police suspicion-presumed guilty of murder. A thousand-year-old book goes missing from a house in Shantinagar and a group of Satan worshipers are let loose by their leader to retrieve it. Who is this strange old man? Why was a boy-next-door like Shamim murdered? What is Nikolas Carsons interest in a legend that has no factual evidence? What is Sambhala? Nikolas Carson, a world renowned archaeologist willingly steps in his kidnapper's car. As the story unravels from France and Rome to India and Tibet, each of the characters cling on to their mission, unaware that their fates are mysteriously intertwined.
