Life is never the same for Mr. Prasad's family when they shift to their new house in a secluded corner of a small town. As they explore the apparently strange world, they encounter characters from culturally contrasting backgrounds, stumble across places wrapped in the half-light of mystery, and witness the unfolding of incidents which are amusing, mysterious, humorous, or tragic.


In this insular town inhabited by Anglo Indians, tribals, and missionaries, spring is followed by the 'season of robberies', lights spring up in a haunted house, and statues come to life...

In the eyes of townspeople, Anglo Hill is a spooky place where apparitions abound, the heath near Mr. Prasad's house is haunted by mythical beasts, coal mines swallow houses, and American missionaries live like Hollywood stars.


A sudden turn of events lifts the shroud around these places, characters, and incidents, and the truth - amusing, mysterious, tragic, or humorous - unravels.
