Operation Bamboo Garden

The world order, as we knew it, is fast changing. Emerging powers are clamouring to claim and cement their positions in the ever-evolving geopolitical landscape. The battle arena has long shifted to nondescript rooms filled with harmless seeming computer equipment. But don’t let appearances fool you.

The suicide of a successful and politically connected C.E.O in Mumbai, India, sets off a series of disparate but alarming events. Are these events linked? Could they be a precursor to something even more vile and sinister? Will Ronit, an A.I. expert who, driven by a sudden patriotic surge, has left a high-paying corporate job to serve his nation, be able to piece together the full puzzle in time? Who is Noor Sabah, the mysterious Malaysian secret agent? Why are most covert command centres of South Asia terrified of the name, Zhiming?
