The title of the series is actually a riposte to a very (in)famous quote of ZA Bhutto about Pakistani ambitions to acquire Nuclear Weapons.
The title sets the tone of book, covering a canvas spanning decades, but principally anchored by a set of protagonists working for RaW.
The story effectively zooms in from a geopolitical lens to the operational spycraft, departmental politics and authentic human interactions and then again zooms out to describe pivotal moments of history in the Indian Sub-continent/ Afg.
Shaunak writes with a level of detail that makes you wonder if he imagined it all or it has been passed down to him from people who were participants of the events described in the book. Things like the creak of the JONGA door, in the meeting with Gen. Sundarji, or the problems of exacting revenge on an enemy agent on French soil.
He also compels you to think beyond binaries and invites a new perspective to think about past events. For example the motivations of PM Morarji Desai (avoiding spoilers - where he calls his counter part and reveals secrets that were gained a great cost) have been imagined with pragmatism and empathy.
While the writing style is very accessible, I also think that Shaunak has not settled on a style yet.
Most of the book like a Forsyth novel, the characters are what you would find in a Alistair Maclean novel, the action scenes are a cross between Ludlum and Bollywood. There is only a hint to romance (in that respect the book is very proper) but on disappointments and sad developments, it’s like it was written by a Russian. The book could be made into a script that would translate very well into a movie. It would be interesting to see in which direction his writing evolves.
I am hoping to read more of him, and that he I s working on his next book. Looking forward to his next one.



India was well ahead of Pakistan in the race to produce the first nuclear weapons in the 1970’s which didn’t go down well with the then Prime Minister Bhutto of Pakistan. He had sworn that he would do anything to ensure that they came out on top. When Captain Sablok stumbles upon a couple of suspect documents it isn’t the easiest of tasks to persuade his colleagues that there is a little bit of a leak by someone. He enlists the help of his boss, after constant pushing and things really take off. Brains against brains, masses of paper work and gruelling investigating all with an engaging dry humour that just took it from great to brilliant.
This story becomes a battle of wits to find out how the information is being obtained and passed on to the Pakistan Government. A race against time and odds. This is a story that the author has built round events in the 1970’s between India and Pakistan. The book is only 160 pages long but packs in a whole lot tension and makes a nitty-gritty paper work investigation into a fascinating story. The research that the author has done just shines through on every page making it one must read story.
