Publisher's Synopsis

Ajay and his friends are back in a third adventure! 

When eight-year-old Kai - custodian of a legendary treasure map - asks the Mumbai Sun team for help, Ajay knows he has landed on his next story.

But a dastardly billionaire treasure hunter has heard of the map too . . .

  • A series of truth, friendship and determination set in modern-day India
  • Wonderfully illustrated by Sònia Albert and starring a lovable ensemble cast of characters
