Gulnora

Ashok Bhasin graduated from Hindu College, Delhi University, before joining the Customs and Central Excise Department in 1976.

He later completed an MA in Philosophy and LLB from Delhi University, and was awarded the President of India Award in 1996 for his distinguished services. His professional experience informs every layer of this gripping thriller.

In 2000, young Uzbek woman Gulnora is caught at Delhi airport with 27 bales of silk.

What seems like routine smuggling quickly unravels into a maze of corruption and deadly secrets. When Customs Superintendent Ankit Tyagi is found dead — his wife calling it suicide, Inspector Sandeep Yadav suspecting murder — a probe begins that exposes bribes, buried favours, and powerful players desperate to stay hidden.

A sharp, insider thriller written by someone who knows exactly how these systems work.
