For most, it’s a fleeting escape. But for one young woman, it became the last place she was ever seen. On a quiet stretch of sand in Punta Cana, as dawn crept over the horizon, a 20-year-old student from the University of Pittsburgh vanished without a trace. Clothes left behind, stories that don’t quite align, and a search that has raised more questions than answers. This is the story of that island, that spring break, and that student. This is the story of Sudiksha Konanki.

But on one such night in January 1996, that stillness was broken by something unspeakable. Inside a quiet home in Vasant Kunj, a nightmare unfolded—one that everyone around had feared, one that the victim herself had warned of, and one that, chillingly, would go on to change the country. This is the story of that quiet winter evening in Delhi, that Vasant Kunj home, and the one woman who found herself stuck behind its walls in the presence of pure evil.
