Ellie Mallory didnโt exactly volunteer to prevent the most dangerous artifact of the Ramayana from falling into the wrong handsโbut if one has been coerced into an adventure, the least one can do is bring along a few friends.
Constance Tyrrell has new daggers stuffed in her garters, a thirst to discover everything India has to offerโฆ and absolutely no interest in Dr. Neil Fairfax, Ellieโs scholarly stepbrother. Meanwhile, Neil finds himself wrangling a magical sword along with his increasingly tangled feelings about a certain doe-eyed danger gnome.
Then thereโs Adam Batesโhandy with a machete, perpetually shirtless, and about to face some unsettling ghosts of his past.
Together, they must follow the footsteps of an ancient hero from the festivals of Puri to the shadowy depths of a legendary forest, racing a brutal colonial administrator with allies of his ownโincluding the complicated and mysterious Mr. Jacobs.
It will take all Ellieโs resourcesโfrom a working knowledge of practical chemistry to a highly excitable dogโto beat a new sort of demon to the place where a holy power has lain hidden for two thousand yearsโฆ alongside the secret history of the woman at the heart of Indiaโs greatest story.
