April 2025 | Mumbai, India — Every generation produces a writer who doesn’t just tell stories—but dares to confront the truth wrapped inside them. Somnath Roy is that voice. With the release of his latest novel, Mission Frank Li, Roy steps firmly into the global spotlight, delivering a high-octane thriller that is as emotionally gripping as it is politically explosive.
Published by Evincepub Publishing, the novel is already being hailed as a game-changer in the Indian thriller space—a book that doesn’t just entertain but reveals the brutal undercurrents of a world manipulated by secrecy, ambition, and betrayal.
The Premise: A Mission Beyond Borders, And Beyond Belief
Frank Li, once thought imprisoned, resurfaces with a terrifying plan: supply nuclear technology to Iran through proxies like Hamas and Hezbollah. The world watches, unaware, while elite intelligence agencies scramble behind closed doors to stop a disaster in the making.
The response? A covert, multinational strike team formed by India’s RAW, America’s CIA, Israel’s Mossad, Germany’s BND, and Britain’s MI6.
What follows is a chase across continents—from Shanghai to Tel Aviv, Berlin to Tehran—led by operatives like Vikram Singh Rana, the stoic Indian handler, and Yonatan Elbaz, a Mossad agent with demons of his own. But as loyalties fracture and a mole is revealed within the CIA itself, the mission collapses into a psychological labyrinth—one that forces each agent to confront not only the enemy, but their own conscience.
A Thriller That Bleeds With Truth
Mission Frank Li is more than international espionage—it’s about the people who live inside the mission. Soldiers without uniforms. Patriots without medals. Human beings who carry the weight of decisions made in silence.
In Roy’s world, the real battles are not just fought with guns and codewords—they are fought in minds, between duty and morality, between the cost of war and the price of silence.

Critical Acclaim
“Roy writes with a filmmaker’s eye and a philosopher’s heart. Mission Frank Li is Bond meets Behrouz Boochani—global, gutsy, and gorgeously written.”
— Ink & Reel
“A masterclass in espionage fiction with a soul. This isn’t just about stopping bombs—it’s about the cost of carrying the world’s secrets.”
— Literary Lane Review
“Somnath Roy has outdone himself. If you thought Aryavrata was ambitious, Mission Frank Li is a literary IED.”
