In the dark underbelly of Mumbai City a nihilistic new leader has risen to rule the fetid underworld. His name is Babban. Cruel beyond imagination, psychotically violent and far more devious than any gangster the city has ever known.

Nobody has ever seen him and if they did, they didn't survive to tell the tale. But one man believed in his existence. And that is inspector Narsimha, an encounter specialist who has a single-minded determination to finish Babban.
