On India's North-East frontier a killer elephant is reported to be on the rampage, stalking Assam's paddy fields, murdering dozens of farmers and leaving behind their mutilated bodies. Local authorities call in one of India's last licensed elephant killers, Dinesh Choudhury, and issue a warrant for the animal's destruction.;Reading about the ensuing hunt in a Delhi newspaper, Tarquin Hall flies to Assam to investigate. He is convinced no elephant could be guilty of such grisly crimes. However as Choudhury and Hall embark on their search for the rougue elephant, Hall's preconceived ideas begin to unravel.
