The year is 2500 BCE: four high-spirited girls and boys are on their way to the auspicious Surya Mela. Kartik, Xerxes, Kaveri and Nami have set off from their village for the big fair held in Lothal, a port town in Meluhha (Bharat). On the way, a daring robbery takes place— sacred treasures have been stolen from Mohenjo Daro’s temple, including the famous dancing girl statue—and immediately, they are caught up in its coils. In the city they meet young Amu Darya from faraway Mesopotamia, a world utterly different from theirs, who is looking for his missing father, last seen in this part of the Indus Valley. When Amu warns them of the grave danger they’re in, the five become fast friends. But soon, they are entangled in forces much darker than they could ever have expected. Will the fearless fivesome succeed in upholding the honour of Mohenjo daro? An amazing tale full of white parrots, elephant rides, river caravans and secret maps, The Adventure of the Missing Dancing Girl is a glorious adventure story set in the time of the Indus Valley civilisation.ISBN - 9788184000634
