Terror in the Dakhma

But a scary mark in Farhad Daruwala’s house signals danger from the Dakhma, a Tower of Silence where Parsis leave their dead for vultures. The Silent Vulture by Advitya Ray is a thrilling horror story about fear, family, and fighting a creepy force called the Vulture’s Breath. Fear traps grief—these three words will hook you, making you want to read right now!

A Father’s Brave Fight

Farhad, a dad who lost his wife, loves his kids, Zarin and Cyrus. Zarin is bold and smart, Cyrus is quiet but strong. When the Vulture’s Breath turns their sadness into shades—shadowy figures stuck in a weird feather city—they join their Parsi neighbors to stop it. There’s Firoza, a historian with big ideas, Priya, a journalist hunting truth, Ervad Behram, a priest with old prayers, and Banu, a teacher who doubts but learns to believe. They use Zoroastrian rituals, tied to the Dokhmenashini tradition, to battle this force. Advitya Ray shows a family and community standing together, fighting fear with love.

Mumbai’s Scary World

Imagine Mumbai’s busy streets—rickshaws honking, monsoon rain falling, and the Dakhma’s dark stones looming. The Parsi colony feels real, with old bungalows, fire temples, and community halls. The Dakhma, where vultures once ate the dead to free souls, is now a place of terror, powered by the Vulture’s Breath. Ray makes every detail pop—dusty lanes, glowing divo lamps, and the clash of Parsi traditions with today’s world. This book feels like you’re in Mumbai, scared but hooked.
