Kali on the Ropes
Arya fights to stay alive, both in the boxing ring and outside it.
A gifted amateur boxer battling addiction, Arya is running from her past while slowly destroying herself in the present. Philip, a retired boxer, hides from a violent history he refuses to face. Sister Maria works among Kolkata’s poorest, believing service is the only form of redemption that matters.
When their lives intersect, each is forced into a reckoning they can no longer avoid.
As Arya is drawn into a brutal underground world tied to human trafficking, fighting becomes more than survival. It becomes a moral stand.
Kali on the Ropes is a dark, intimate novel about violence, compassion, and the cost of choosing to fight for something larger than yourself.
