The book explores the devastating aftermath of the 2001 massacre of the Nepalese royal family, which plunged the nation into chaos. Following the reinstatement of the monarchy in 2005 by the deceased king's brother, hopes for democracy faded. The narrative delves into the violent struggles between Maoist insurgents and the monarchy's brutal counter-insurgency, highlighting the relentless political infighting among parties and the profound suffering of the Nepalese people during this tumultuous period.
