Valley of the Rats
Formats: E-Book, Audio, Paperback
Ages: 8-11
Krish never wanted to go camping—especially not with the father who barely knows him. But when a detour in the unforgiving wilds of Ladakh leads them to a village erased from history, their uneasy reunion becomes a fight for survival.
Imdur is quiet. Too quiet. The villagers are kind—until they’re not. Bound by rituals and shadowed by secrets, this place watches, waits, and punishes those who don’t belong.
As the village tightens its grip, Krish must confront more than his fears. Something is being kept from him. Something that could cost them both their lives.
Some places change you. Some truths demand it.
