About the Event
It was said that Philo from Byzantium may be the first known writer known to describe the use of an invisible ink using some organic formulae. Later people discovered that the invisible ink could be made visible by adding a reagent and be used to send secret messages.
This venture is all about mystery, thriller and heists - maybe the most accurate crime, the horror fiction or the perfect murder mystery and all those related that lie under the oath of secrecy...
This project is planned to span over a period of time with physical book launches (the first one to be held at Iconic Indian Coffee House in Kolkata built in 1876 with the Albert Hall and situated opposite the historic Presidency College)Â
followed by pitching to production houses, directors, producers and those related in the industry for film making, otts and web series.
All submissions are online while those unable to join the book launch in person will have their deliverables conducted online and remotely.
