Adamya 1 by Smaranjit Chakrabarty [Hardcover]

Father Francis took the little orphan boy to himself. As the years passed, he grew up in a secluded church in the lap of the Alps. Then one day suddenly that ordinary-looking Bengali boy stood in front of the world. His journey between light and darkness. Europe, Africa, Asia - he travels everywhere. Shadowy are his movements, and secretive are his activities. Sometimes he breaks the rules of the law, and jumps the fence. From the theft of Rembrandt's paintings to the AIDS drug formula or blood diamonds to Puja's bomb blasts in Calcutta, he questions all the rules of good and bad. From international crime syndicates to Interpol - everyone seeks him out, enlists his help. Several orphanages depend on it. He is stronger than sadness, braver than loneliness, and more alert than an eagle. He is Adamya, Adamya Sen. The six stories in this book tell the story of the boy standing on the dividing line between light and shadow.
