The Chocolate Trap

By Sheikh Ahasunul Islam

In the quiet suburbs of Kolkata, the sweetest things hide the darkest secrets.

When a young schoolboy is caught smuggling drugs hidden inside chocolate wrappers, DCP Lagnajita Bhattacharya is pulled into a disturbing investigation that leads far beyond a simple case of drug peddling. As she unravels the layers of a cunning criminal operation, she discovers a sprawling conspiracy involving school children, teachers, and an influential network hiding in plain sight.

With innocent lives at risk and her own sense of justice on the line, Lagnajita races against time to expose a network that uses children as pawns and sweetness as a disguise. But when a key suspect is murdered in broad daylight, the trail turns bloody—and personal.

The Chocolate Trap is a gripping Bengali crime thriller laced with suspense, emotion, and social commentary. At its heart, it is the story of one woman's relentless pursuit of the truth in a world where innocence is the perfect camouflage for evil.
