About the Author Surendra Pratap Singh was born in a village in Uttar Pradesh, India. He studied up to Class VI in a village School and then went to UP Sainik School, Lucknow from where he passed his ICSC. Further, he did his military training from NDA and IMA before joining the Army as an officer in 1983. During a patrolling assignment in 1998 in Mizoram, one day he passed by a haunting lake, nestled in the midst of beautiful hills.

The story inspired him so much that he picked up writing, which became his passion. Presently he lives in Dehradun.
