WALKING WITH SLEEPING SOULS

When Garry Sahota is found bludgeoned in his own home, the crime appears impossible. No forced entry. No obvious motive. No witness is worth trusting-only a dead man, a grieving wife, and a silence that seems almost deliberate.

Detective Inspector Scott knows from the beginning that this is no ordinary killing. Someone has planned it with chilling precision. Someone has removed more than a life. And somewhere inside the missing pieces lies a truth dangerous enough to murder for.

But the deeper Scott goes, the more the case begins to shift beneath his feet. What starts as a modern investigation opens into an older story, one carried across decades, across families, across the long journey from Punjab to Britain. A story of sacrifice and ambition. Of friendship and betrayal. Of love bruised by pride, and lives built carefully enough to hide their cracks.

Because the dead do not always stay in the past. And some families do not merely inherit land, money, or names. They inherit wounds. Secrets. Sleeping souls.

Walking with Sleeping Souls is a gripping and emotionally layered novel in which murder, memory, and migration move side by side. Rich in human detail and shadowed by moral complexity, it is a story about the things people bury, the lies they learn to live with, and the price that comes when the past finally stirs.
