Teenager Chinmay Patgaonkar launches his second book Ashoka’s Secret with NuVoice Press

Ashoka’s Secret is Chinmay Patgaonkar’s second venture into fiction. The story goes thus: After the devastating horrors of the Kalinga war, Ashoka converted to Buddhism and later formed a secret society called The Nine Unknown. The purpose of this secret society was to preserve and update the knowledge in them that could benefit humanity. If these manuscripts fell into the wrong hands, then that could lead to a threat towards humanity and society. More than two and a half millennia later, another secret society formed by power hungry, greedy people is on the hunt to kill all members of the Nine Unknown and steal the nine manuscripts to take control of the entire world. In the midst of a war between two secret societies is a PhD student named Ananya who finds herself being chased by danger for protecting the secret which Ashoka feared would fall into the wrong hands. Can Ashoka’s secret stay lost in history? 

The young author’s book was launched by Dr Anand Deshpande, the Founder, Chairman & Managing Director of Persistent Systems and the founding member of iSPIRIT, India’s first product think tank started with a vision of creating a vibrant entrepreneurial ecosystem in India as well as i4C – Inter Institutional Inclusive Innovation Center; Sandeep Chhabra, the Principal of Indus International School Pune and a revered educationist for three and a half decades; Dr Uma Ganesh, an MBA from the Faculty of Management Studies, New Delhi and PhD from IIT Bombay.
