DEATH BY DESIGN

A seventeen-year-old murder conviction is reopened — not because of new evidence, but because something about it still haunts the city’s highest officer. When the Commissioner quietly assigns Inspector Pranav and his newly-formed Cold Case Unit to re-investigate the death of Lakshmi, a woman believed to be brutally murdered by her husband, it sets off a chain of revelations no one was prepared for. What begins as a straightforward review spirals into a disturbing exploration of manipulated truths, clinical precision, and emotional deception. As Pranav, and team peel back layers of the past, they begin to question everything — from the original motive to the very nature of the crime itself. Was this truly a murder… or a perfectly constructed illusion? Some crimes are chaotic. This one was calculated. And every piece of it… was by design.
