When economies collapse, people don't just lose jobs or savings-they lose anchors. In the shadow of uncertainty, belief begins to glow brighter, sometimes as comfort, sometimes as fire. Ashes of Certainty follows Ravi, an ordinary man in a city battered by crisis, who finds himself drawn to a figure promising hope where reason falters. Around him, neighbors, families, and entire communities begin surrendering to rituals, whispers of miracles, and the promise of deliverance. What starts as a flicker of faith spreads like wildfire, reshaping lives, loyalties, and even politics. But is this faith a lifeline-or a chain? As devotion deepens, hidden motives emerge, and the line between solace and exploitation blurs. Every act of belief carries a cost, and every unanswered question leaves behind only ashes. At once intimate and sweeping, this novel is a journey through the fragile space between skepticism and surrender, hope and fear, truth and illusion. It asks: in times of collapse, what do we cling to-and what do we risk losing in return?
