A writer arrives in Ooty seeking inspiration. What he finds is a palace that shouldn't exist, a royal host who may not be alive, and a vintage Plymouth car that holds the weight of a forgotten tragedy.
When Rudra Maharaja invites him into the grand halls of a once-glorious estate, the writer is drawn into a story that defies logic and time. Meals are served by a silent old man. Conversations stretch across decades. And every night ends in an inexplicable eighteen-hour sleep.
As the writer investigates the royal family's history, he uncovers a buried scandal, a brother's betrayal, and a car crash that shattered lives twenty years ago. But the deeper he digs, the more blurred the line becomes between fiction and reality—until he realizes he may not be writing the story at all… he may be living it.
With the help of Ravi, a local driver unknowingly tied to the palace's secrets, the writer must confront the ghosts of the past—both literal and emotional—and decide whether truth is worth the cost of sanity.
A haunting psychological thriller set in the misty hills of Ooty, The Man in the Monsoon Coat is a tale of betrayal, memory, and the stories that refuse to die.
