Publisher's Summary

The year is 1971
Tension is brewing between India and Pakistan
One secret could change the course of history....
It's now up to her.

When a young college-going Kashmiri girl, Sehmat, gets to know her dying father's last wish, she can do little but surrender to his passion and patriotism and follow the path he has so painstakingly laid out. It is the beginning of her transformation from an ordinary girl into a deadly spy. 

She's then married off to the son of a well-connected Pakistani general, and her mission is to regularly pass information to the Indian intelligence. Something she does with extreme courage and bravado, till she stumbles on information that could destroy the naval might of her beloved country.

Inspired from real events, Calling Sehmat...is an espionage thriller that brings to life the story of this unsung heroine of war.

If Lord grants Karma, there is no better reward

This Book was a need of the hour for me. it is a display of two extreme ends or contrasts like Valor vs Delicateness, Level-headed vs Kindness and Pragmatic Vs Amenable and Purity.... The story of 'Sehmat' refined me and defined the goals

Fantastic book. Ghastly narration.

The narrator makes a few mistakes here and there, repeats the words again and the errors and mistakes arent edited out. Lol.

Just feels like the man just recorded in one go and published it without any editing at all.

The story is fantastic, so that kinda covers for it. But the production is terrible.
