Seven Vaults. Seven Coils. Seven Thresholds. Open one, and all will remember.

Deep in a cave beneath Kailāsa, archaeologist and rationalist Dr. Arjun Pandey uncovers a carving that should not exist, and something inside it wakes. A bite that leaves no wound. A golden mark moving beneath his skin. And one word, arriving from the stone itself: Decipherer.

Guided by an ancient manuscript and a map of seven circles joined by a single unbroken line, he sets out toward seven temples, each guarded by a Nāga, a living current of time, breath, fire, water, voice, vision and infinity. Every Glyph he reads takes something from him. Every step brings him closer to the Nāga Lipi, a language never meant to be read, only remembered, and to a truth that has waited longer than any kingdom has stood.

• Seven temples, seven Guardians and a cipher that reads the reader back
• A gripping blend of archaeology, Indian mythology and mystery, from the snow-bound caves of Kailāsa to temples in the far south
• A story of sacrifice, betrayal and transformation that asks whether the myths we preserve are history, or memory

Will you read the Glyph, or will the Glyph read you?
