Missal, who debuted as an author two years ago with the tome "Damien Black: The Battle of Lost Ages" in the just launched book spins a tale of angels and demons in his new book titled "Unlocked."
The book revolves around Casper Socrates, a dark and complex character drawn from the Christian fantasy, who is trying to fight the demons in and around him.
An avid fan of Paulo Coelho, Missal says he is a voracious reader of mythologies and is already planning his next book on Hindu mythology.
Fantasy is the forte of the young author who says not many writers from India have written extensively on this genre.

"Christian mythology has never been explored by Indian authors. It is an unexplored territory," says Missal who is a student of class XII.
Missal says he modelled the protagonist Casper Socrates, in "Unlocked" partly on one of his friend's brother and partly on himself.
"Casper is kind of an anti-hero. He is totally different. No one can read his emotions. He wears a facade all the time. He is very cold and does not talk much," says Missal who took about one year to finish the novel.
