Scientists are dropping like dead flies; but as natural as their deaths may seem, there certainly is something fishy. Akash Malhotra, a dedicated policeman, is hot on the trails of what he identifies as suspicious. One thing leads to another and Akash finds an interesting piece in the puzzle after he is taken off the case; but the journalist who tips him off is killed. His investigation takes him deeper into the case, but soon, he is killed too. Enter Shakti, an NIA officer with fire in his belly. He embarks on the journey through murky waters, encountering more murders and kidnappings on the way. Fighting raging battles and discovering inconvenient truths, Shakti’s investigation takes him to a very difficult place. Does he catch the man behind all the murders? Does he save the future of his country from annihilation by a nuclear missile?
Environmental Management Technologies: Challenges and Opportunities details the environmental problems posed by the various types of toxic organic and inorganic pollutants discharged from both natural and anthropogenic activities and their toxicological effects in environments, humans, animals, and plants.
