'You are in real, real danger.’ A schoolteacher gets a creepy warning in his mailbox. Seven days later, he murders eleven of his students.
Two months later, he is gunned down in broad daylight by an obscure militant outfit. Justice served. The nation pacified. Case closed.
But, two crime reporters think otherwise.
Seeking redemption through this case are Prakash and Seema, ace journalists in their professional lives, but broken individuals. As they dig deeper into the mystery, they are led into the ominous forests of Bandhavgarh where an eerily similar massacre had occurred eight years ago.
One by one their leads start turning up in body bags and they are chased by assassins at every corner. Soon they realise that they are pitted against evil powers pervading the business and political DNA of the country.
Always one step ahead of them, there is no place to hide. The only way is to fight back. But, to do that, Prakash and Seema will first have to survive.

Brutal is co-published by Bloody Good Book and Westland Ltd. Westland will be releasing the print book on September 5, 2015.
