A few of those in and around the house that day are the cruel zamindar Rao sahib of Singhgarh, the devout degenerate Hariharan, the young Bhil Nathu, visiting from a remote tribal village to inform Dada Bhai of a leopard kill, the attractive night soil worker Parijat, and the acerbic widow Sugra, who rolls a rosary and wishes for the jeevti dakkan-the living witch in the peepul tree-to be her secret ally.
Playing with snakes, exploring caves and treading jungles has always delighted Arefa as much as writing. An honorary Wildlife Warden of Udaipur, Arefa is the co-author of Tales from the Wild and has written other wildlife edutainment books.
