Himalayan Refuge (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9789354479441)

Retired Colonel Gautam Shukla's quiet life in the Kumaon Himalayas is rudely

disrupted when his estate manager is attacked by a bunch of thugs under the

leadership of the mysterious and sinister Pandit. Gautam too is threatened

with dire consequences if he does not immediately sell his beautiful property

in the mountains. Meanwhile, a foreign couple with powerful connections is

abducted while trekking-coincidently, in the same region.

As Gautam and friends look for the kidnappers, while also trying to thwart

Pandit and gang's villainous plans, gunfire and bloodshed unsettles the

otherwise peaceful Kumaon. With summer forest fires to add to the troubles,

the action moves at a sizzling pace in this third installment of the Gautam

Shukla thrillers, and will keep you hooked till the end.
