In the scorching dunes of Jaisalmer, the desert hides more than just sand. Vikash thought he was a survivor. After a freak "accident" left him alive while everyone else perished, he was dragged into the Tiger’s Den—a subterranean fortress run by the Wild Hunters, India’s most shadow-bound military unit. But this isn't a rescue. It’s an evaluation. Stripped of his identity and branded as "Subject Zero," Vikash is thrust into a world of high-tech bunkers, "milky-eyed" commanders, and the terrifying reality of the Zero Program. He’s told he’s fragile, a civilian, a mistake. But as the lies of the military machine begin to crack, Vikash realizes the accident that "saved" him might have left something dark behind. In a world where you are either a Hunter or the Prey, Vikash has to decide: Will he break under the pressure of the Den, or will he become the monster they’re so afraid of?
