On a lazy day in London, a cardboard box is found on a shelf of the SOAS library where a copy of the Mahabharata should have been. When the mystified librarian opens it, she screams before she falls unconscious to the floor. An elite group calling itself the Lashkar-e-Talatashar, the Army of Thirteen, has scattered around the globe. Their leader is not even a blip on the radar of intelligence agencies, yet their agenda is Armageddon. In the Vatican, a beautiful assassin swears to kill - again and again. A Hindu astrologer spots a conjunction of the stars that signifies the end of the world. In Tibet, Buddhist monks search for a reincarnation, much in the way their ancestors searched Judea for the Son of God. In strife-torn Kashmir, a tomb called Rozabal holds the key to a riddle that arises in Jerusalem and gets answered at Vaishno Devi. In The Rozabal Line, a thriller swirling between continents and centuries, Ashwin Sanghi traces a pattern that curls backward to the violent birth of religion itself.
