About the Book
When twelve-year-old Ayan discovers a sealed tin box caught among the roots of a dying riverside tree, he expects a forgotten treasure. Instead, he finds a hand-drawn map, a list of village names, and a warning about the river. With his cousin Rupa and their friend Imran, Ayan follows clues through fishing hamlets and market towns. Their search reveals a hidden danger threatening the river—and the livelihoods of everyone who depends on it. To protect their community, the children must prove what they have discovered before the next monsoon changes everything.
