"An unprecedented attack. The rules of engagement are about to change forever. During a tense Independence Day address at the Red Fort, Major Arjun Rathore, an elite sniper, witnesses the unthinkable: a terrorist cell, led by the fanatical Junaid, emerging from a forgotten Mughalera tunnel looking to wreak havoc.

The attack is thwarted, but the enemy escapes, leaving the nation's intelligence apparatus at high gear to apprehend them. The NSA Ajit Doval initiates a covert operation to try and 'turn' one of their own to operate as a mole. Would this lead to a trail across borders, infiltrate the highest ranks of a hostile terror network, and deliver a lethal, precision strike? When the dust settles, does the mole remain alive, a secret weapon for the coming storm?

This was not the end of the conflict. It was merely the opening move of The Long Game."
