Vishwakarma: A Novel of Conspiracy, Justice, and Transformation
A multigenerational Sri Lankan family saga where love, loss, and an unspeakable conspiracy converge to shatter seventy years of corruption.
When fourteen-year-old Yukthi is killed alongside 269 others in the Easter Sunday bombings of 2019, her mother Priya loses more than her daughter and her right hand-she loses faith that justice will ever come to Sri Lanka.
For seventy years, two families have ruled the island through theft, violence, and manipulation, destroying a nation once called the pearl of the Indian Ocean. Priya's humanitarian work, feeding and healing devastated communities, earns her the people's trust. But trust alone cannot dismantle a machinery of corruption protected by foreign powers and enforced through terror.
Across three continents, childhood bonds forged in 1980s in Colombo will be tested in ways no one could foresee. Kusal, a virologist at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, has developed something extraordinary: a precision bioweapon that can target specific individuals by their genetic signatures. Vishwa, former CFO of the LTTE's billion-dollar empire, now drives limousines in Chennai-and carries a debt of honor to the family that once saved his life.
When opportunity and desperation converge in a temple parking lot, a single choice will alter the course of a nation.
As Priya prepares to transform her relief organization into a political movement, she doesn't know that the path to power has already been cleared-not by divine intervention, but by science deployed in secret and friendship tested by conscience.
Vishwa Karma-the cosmic principle of action, the divine architect-reminds us that every action carries consequences across generations, and that justice, when it finally arrives, may come from the most unexpected source.
A gripping exploration of family, loyalty, and the impossible choices we make when systems fail and only extreme measures remain.
