About the Book
Netaji, Shabdo Rahoshyo Ebong... is a fascinating Bengali thriller that masterfully blends history, mystery, and suspense. Inspired by the ideals of Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose, Himangshu Sekhar Ganguly joins the Azad Hind Fauj and marries Indubala Devi, a courageous member of the women’s regiment and a secret spy working against British forces. To support her covert missions, Himangshu invents a revolutionary micro video camera small enough to be hidden inside an earring—an extraordinary device ahead of its time, used by freedom fighters for secret communication.

Indubala courageously infiltrates British camps disguised as a domestic worker, gathering crucial intelligence. However, her bravery leads to tragedy when she is captured and brutally tortured to death in prison. After independence, Himangshu dedicates his life to preserving sound and memory by creating a rare archive called “Shabdo Bagan,” a unique collection of historical audio devices, rare records, and instruments. Just as he completes an important phase of his collection, he becomes the victim of a mysterious attack that leaves him permanently blind.

Years later, his death reveals traces of poison in his body, raising disturbing questions. Who wanted to kill an elderly man? What secrets did he possess? As the investigation unfolds, hidden truths about the Azad Hind Fauj, forgotten missions, and the mysterious micro camera device begin to surface. The narrative connects past and present, revealing a conspiracy that stretches across decades.

This gripping novel combines patriotism, technological intrigue, and emotional depth, offering readers a thrilling journey through India’s freedom struggle and its lingering secrets. It explores themes of sacrifice, betrayal, and the enduring power of truth hidden within history.
