Suddenly, her father is abducted and so are several international espionage agents … Are all these events connected? With some new friends and a few old enemies, Rhea must rescue her father, dodge the ISI and solve a global crisis … all the while trying to unmask the Voice, a faceless, ruthless overlord with a sinister agenda.

In this brilliant comic book, Aniruddha Bahal’s fearless heroine traverses the world of twenty-first-century politics with nothing more than an instinct for trouble and a thirst for adventure.
