Publisher's Synopsis
The Eternal Whispers of Nalanda: The Rising Cycle
Some doors should never be opened... and some secrets should remain buried forever.
Months after the portal beneath Nalanda's ancient ruins was sealed, Aditi thought her battle with time and the supernatural had ended. But when strange symbols reappear across Patna, accompanied by terrifying disappearances and ghostly whispers, she realizes the cycle wasn't broken-it was only reset.
A new mysterious gate has been discovered beneath the ruins-far older than the first portal and tied to an ancient force known only as The First Keeper. This isn't just a guardian... it's a judge of all timelines, a being that has waited centuries to break free.
As time fractures once again, visions from forgotten lives haunt Aditi's every step. Shashi mysteriously returns with new warnings, while Veer Pratap Singh, thought to be lost in the portal, reappears-more powerful and dangerous than ever. The forgotten gate is opening, threatening to merge the past, present, and future into one chaotic existence.
With ghostly figures rising from the shadows, new betrayals, and deeper conspiracies, Aditi must race against time to unravel the truth about The First Keeper.
But stopping the gate may require more than knowledge-it may demand a final sacrifice.
Will Aditi restore the balance, or will the forgotten gate consume everything?
This novel is perfect for lovers of mystical thrillers, historical secrets, supernatural horror, and stories where the past refuses to stay buried.
