About the Book

What if your phone received a video from tomorrow, one that showed a murder that had not yet happened?
Fourteen-year-old Kabir is an ordinary student at St. Jude’s Boarding Academy, struggling with exams, friendships, and an unspoken crush. But his life changes forever when he accidentally discovers an extraordinary ability: by crossing and snapping his fingers, he can freeze time. Each use of this power comes at a terrifying cost, lowering his body temperature, triggering dangerous fevers, and pushing him closer to death.
At the same time, Kabir’s phone begins receiving mysterious videos from exactly twenty-four hours in the future. When one of these videos shows his best friend Rohit being framed for murder, Kabir races against time to change fate. Alongside brilliant hacker Meera and gifted science student Ananya, he uncovers a vast conspiracy involving surveillance, artificial intelligence, and a powerful organization determined to control the future itself.
As the stakes escalate from a school campus to a nationwide battle against a technologically advanced network, Kabir must decide how much he is willing to sacrifice to protect the people he loves. Every second he freezes time may save a life, or cost him his own.
Filled with gripping action, heartfelt friendships, mystery, humor, and emotional depth, ‘Kabir and the Video from Tomorrow’ is a fast-paced science-fiction thriller for young readers. Blending cutting-edge technology with timeless themes of courage, loyalty, sacrifice, and the importance of free will, it explores a powerful question: Is the future something we discover—or something we choose to create?
