Disturbed by a dark presence within the fort, they flee before nightfall. Unable to forget what she witnessed, Vanya spends the night researching the mystery of Bhangarh, the disappearance of an entire Village, and why no one dares enter the fort after sunset. By morning, she has vanished without a trace.
With his only lead pointing back to Bhangarh, the investigator returns to Bhangarh in search of her.
