RESTORING RAJIV
An extraordinary young Indian prodigy joins renowned American investigator David Wade on an assignment that appears deceptively straightforward: recover a priceless spyglass believed to have been left behind by Captain James Cook during his final Pacific voyage. But the mission takes an unexpected turn when Rajiv Mohandas reveals a deeply personal reason for joining the search. Nearly twenty years earlier, his father mysteriously vanished while attending a business convention in Tasmania. Days later, his body was found by an enigmatic beachcomber. No satisfactory explanation was ever discovered. From the vibrant technology hub of Bengaluru to the glittering skyline of Sydney, across the rugged coastlines of Tasmania and the breathtaking beauty of Lord Howe Island, Wade and Rajiv follow a centuries-old trail that intertwines maritime history with a family's unanswered questions. Along the way, they are joined by the captivating Aphrodite, an influential Australian executive whose museum connections—and growing attraction to Wade—draw her into a journey where history, loyalty, and loss converge. As forgotten clues emerge from weathered journals, distant shorelines, and long-buried memories, the search for Captain Cook's spyglass becomes something far greater: a son's search for peace. In the end, not every mystery can be solved—but sometimes the greatest discoveries are not the objects we recover, but the lives we restore. Blending history, suspense, romance, and international adventure, Restoring Rajiv carries readers from NYC to India to Australia in another gripping installment of the acclaimed Denary series, where every lost artifact reveals a deeper human story, and every journey leaves someone forever changed.
