April 2025 | India — A trailblazer in contemporary Indian literature, Somnath Roy has rapidly ascended as one of the most exciting and intellectually driven authors of the modern era.

From exploring ancient Indian civilization to delving into international espionage, his stories are rich in research, depth, and thought-provoking themes.
A Literary Voice with Purpose
Born on June 30, 1997, in Katihar, Bihar, Somnath Roy’s journey is anything but conventional. A graduate in Electrical Engineering from JIS College of Engineering, his career took a profound turn as he chose storytelling over a technical profession. This shift wasn’t just a change of career—it was a calling rooted in curiosity, fueled by research, and inspired by the desire to explore profound truths across disciplines.
Roy writes in English, Hindi, and Bengali, and draws influence from physics, psychology, spirituality, ancient history, and geopolitics. His writing spans multiple genres, yet remains anchored in a singular mission: to challenge conventional narratives and bridge science with the human spirit.

About Book: Mission Frank Li
Set against a volatile geopolitical landscape, the novel centers around Frank Li (alias Karl Lee)—a fugitive arms dealer believed to be apprehended in 2019 but resurfacing with a plan to deliver nuclear components to Iran through proxies like Hamas and Hezbollah. In a race against time, intelligence agencies from India (RAW), the US (CIA), Israel (MOSSAD), Germany (BND), and the UK (MI6) form an elite task force.
With locations ranging from China to Germany to the Middle East, the story follows Vikram Singh Rana, Abhinav Mathur, and Yonatan Elbaz as they confront betrayal, assassination attempts, and deadly ambushes. When a CIA mole—Mason Clark, turned by Chinese intelligence—is discovered within the team, the operation escalates into a dramatic climax. On December 24th, the final confrontation ends with Frank Li captured and Mason executed. The novel shines a harsh light on the psychological toll, ethical choices, and human cost behind intelligence work.
A Fusion of Science, Spirituality, and Suspense
