The boys join a team of ecologists and explorers in their search for this immensely rare and beautiful creature of the wild.

But when they stumble upon a devious kidnapping plot, their idyllic holiday turns into a desperate struggle for survival.

Forced out into the sea in the eye of a raging storm, they endure a shipwreck, only to be marooned on a remote coral island.

Journey through these breathtaking islands with a tale of scuba diving and sabotage, set in one of India’s most splendid destinations.
