Delhi never forgets, and Detective Harivansh Oberoi knows that every case in this city comes with a debt. The story explores the psychological weight of truth, institutional decay, and the human cost of silence. At its heart stands Delhi Hospital, the city’s monument to corruption, where morality, grief, and justice collide in a brutal war of conscience.
He patrols a capital where bribes move faster than ambulances and hospitals decide who survives by who can pay. His quiet routine fractures when a brutal case lands on his desk, revealing a chain of deaths as chilling as they are intentional. The murders cast a web that binds Harivansh to his past, which he can't ignore.
The Price of Silence: A Delhi Noir merges detective work, investigative journalism, and the shadow of a relentless person whose methods force everyone to confront the line where justice ends and vengeance begins.
