The Pandya Inheritance - Siva Kanth

Some inheritances come with more than grief.

When twin siblings travel to their grandmother's ancestral home in Madurai to settle her estate, they expect paperwork and painful memories. What they uncover instead is a murder-and buried inside a rock-cut temple, six ancient copper plates that could rewrite seven centuries of history and destroy one of South India's most powerful dynasties.

The plates tell a story the Raajendran family has spent generations erasing: a medieval betrayal during the fall of the Pandya kingdom, a fabricated accusation of treason, and a stolen royal land grant worth forty thousand crores in today's money. As an investigative journalist and a medieval historian, Arjun and Meera Pandya are uniquely dangerous to the people who killed to keep this secret. And those people are not finished killing.

Racing through Madurai's temples, bureaucratic corridors, and Thoothukudi's contested coastline, the twins must expose a conspiracy that spans 1311 CE to the present-before they become the next loose end.

The truth was buried for seven hundred years. Unearthing it might cost them everything.
