About the Author
The Crime That Shocked India comes from 2021, during the years when over 1,500 books had no platform. Amazon had shut the door. Draft2Digital said they were "a small company for small authors." The writing never stopped — Atharva was 24 and still producing true crime work with no clear path to publication. True crime writing that requires the same unflinching honesty that characterizes the best of the non-fiction catalog.
