Ghosts of Balochistan: The Border Lies, the Truth Hides
Book 3 of The R & A.W. Chronicles
By Krishna Prasanth Guttikonda

In the shadows of the border, truth becomes the deadliest weapon.

When a RAW safehouse on the Iran–Pakistan border is blown to pieces and a covert agent is executed on video, India’s foreign intelligence service scrambles for answers. Enter Kabir Rana, one of RAW’s most skilled field operatives—now working off the grid.

The mission? Infiltrate Balochistan. Investigate claims of a secret nuclear exchange. Identify the mole within. And do it without leaving a trace.

But Kabir isn’t alone. Meera Sinha, a brilliant analyst with a fractured past, is thrust into field duty. As the two agents uncover a trail of encrypted communications, arms deals, and foreign operatives, they find themselves drawn into a geopolitical web where every move could spark a global catastrophe.

As they dig deeper, personal demons resurface. Loyalties blur. Old enemies return.

And Kabir realizes the real threat might not be across the border—but standing right beside him.

🔥 Why Readers Love This Spy Thriller:

✔️ Fast-paced, high-stakes espionage
✔️ Intricate geopolitical plotting
✔️ Twists that keep you turning pages
✔️ Strong, complex protagonists
✔️ Real-world intelligence operations grounded in fiction

Set in the tense, unpredictable terrain of Balochistan, this gripping novel combines the grit of covert ops with the emotional toll of betrayal, sacrifice, and duty. From secret RAW briefings in New Delhi to rebel camps in the desert and sniper alleys in Quetta, Ghosts of Balochistan takes you deep into the heart of one of the world’s most explosive conflicts.

Fans of John le Carré, Mark Greaney, and Tom Clancy will feel right at home. But this is no Western tale—it’s Indian espionage, with a soul.

📚 Series Note:
This is Book 3 in The R & A.W. Chronicles. While each novel is a standalone mission, readers may enjoy starting from Operation Black Veil and The Kathmandu Protocol to fully appreciate Kabir Rana’s journey.
