This is the seventh book in the Vikram-Aditya series following from Koleshwar’s Secret and is the first of the two-part ‘Andaman Adventure’ books.
The Andaman coast, north and west of the capital city of Port Blair, is an unspoiled stretch of beauty. This untamed coast has only been partly explored. Large sea eagles prowl its blue skies, saltwater crocodiles patrol meandering creeks, and lush and dense forests unfold behind isolated beaches.
These magnificent forests are home to the proud and ancient people of this land known to outsiders as the Jarawa. Wielding arrows and spears, the Jarawa fiercely protect their wild abode, attacking those who dare enter into their sacred space.
Vikram and Aditya, accompanied by Chitra, a free-spirited girl much like the islands themselves, embark on an adventure of a lifetime along this very coast. On a moonlit night they venture up a forbidden creek where danger lurks in the shadows awaiting them. Find out what happens next in this thrilling adventure series set in India’s farthest-most region.

Karun suspects that his childhood toy-a clown named Jokko-is out to get him. Even after he throws it away
multiple times, it follows him around, standing at doorways, clapping its pudgy hands, smiling, staring,
tripping him on wires and choking him in his sleep . . .
Fearing for his life, Karun confides in The Fearless Four-a freshly minted paranormal investigation agency
run by four brave youngsters. As the investigators delve deep into the case, they uncover a more sinister plan at play: More vengeful toys are coming to life, attacking their owners, and turning them into living zombies.
Can The Fearless Four save Karun and the other children before it’s too late?
