On a dark, moonless night, the legendary Raja Vikramaditya undertakes the perilous quest of capturing an infamous spirit, one that has hoodwinked warriors and wise men alike.

Featuring all twenty-five head scratching tales written in an enigmatic style that captures both the wit, humour and eeriness of the original, this is a completely new glimpse at one of the most well-known duos in Indian folklore.
