Senior Inspector Aadhi Narayanan wiped the monsoon rain from his brow and stared at the body floating face-down in the Vembanad Lake. The victim, a wealthy estate owner named Paul Mappillai, had been missing for three days.

Paul's wife, Anita, sat on the veranda of their lakeside bungalow, dabbing her eyes with a silk handkerchief. She claimed Paul had left for Cochin on business.

Aadhi turned the evidence bag over. "It's not a signature. It's a distraction." It was Paul—alive, nervous, and holding a small suitcase

Mariya's voice crackled. "Sir, the autopsy just came in. Cause of death wasn't strangulation. It was poisoning. The ligature was post-mortem."
