An unidentifiable corpse, clad in ancient garb. A ruined fort, deep in South India. And two men, whose search for truth leads them far beyond the boundaries of their reality. Engineer Rizwan Khan and physician Amitesh Patel are drawn to the site by curiosity-but are soon swept into a phenomenon that entangles them in a world shaped by political intrigue and betrayal. As they navigate unfamiliar terrain, each choice they make reverberates across time, altering the course of history itself. Echoes of Yesterday is a richly imagined tale of memory, power, and the fragile threads that bind identity across time. A meditation on the consequences of choice, Echoes of Yesterday invites readers to consider how the past lingers-in ruins, in stories, and in the lives we never expected to live.
