Two lives. One brutal system. A fight that will burn it all down.

In the 17th century, along the East African coast, Juma and Asha live a quiet life shaped by the tides—until the night everything is taken from them.

Captured by a ruthless raiding party and dragged into the vast and hidden networks of the Indian Ocean slave trade, they are torn apart and forced into separate worlds of survival. Juma is thrown into the deadly pearl diving operations of the Gulf, where each breath could be his last. Asha is sold into a powerful household in Basra, where secrets are more dangerous than chains.

But neither of them breaks.

As Juma rises from captive to rebel, and Asha infiltrates the very system that enslaved them, a storm begins to build—one that threatens to destroy the entire network from within.

From the burning shores of Zanzibar to the shadowed corridors of Basra, Chains of the Monsoon is a gripping historical thriller of resilience, strategy, and revenge—where survival is not enough, and freedom comes at a devastating cost.
