Description:
In one of the most action-packed cases in Satyajit Ray's classic detective series, master sleuth Feluda travels from Calcutta to the mountain city of Kathmandu — and into a thrilling rematch with his cunning arch-enemy, Maganlal Meghraj. It all begins with a client who has a sinister lookalike and the murder of a stranger in a Calcutta hotel, clues that lead Feluda, his nephew Topshe and the comical thriller-writer Jatayu deep into Nepal. There they uncover a dangerous international racket peddling fake, dangerous medicines. Their investigation takes them through Kathmandu's temples and a prayer-wheel factory, a tense night at a casino, and an ambush or two, while poor Jatayu unwittingly falls prey to one of Maganlal's wicked tricks. In a sensational climax, Feluda turns the tables on the villains using a clever piece of deduction. Fast-paced, atmospheric and full of suspense, it's a wonderful introduction to India's favourite detective.
