When historian Aisha unearths perfectly preserved, eyeless corpses from the colonial era, she dismisses the local superstitions-until a prophetic dream of a talking dodo leads her to a pirate's map warning of a \"ward\" broken long ago. As the island's elite, a secretive Conseil, scramble to contain what they've always managed, and four teenagers awaken to elemental powers tied to the land's dying breath, Aisha realizes the truth: Mauritius is not just haunted by its past. It is haunted by its own protection. Now, as historical horror converges with elemental fantasy, a sugar baron's cursed pact, a hacker's cryptic warnings, and a sacrifice buried in the deep sea collide. To save their home, a broken quartet of Windborne teens must face the most terrifying phantom of all: the loving, quiet god their own heroism created, who wants to preserve them forever in a beautiful, silent tomorrow.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Keshav Kumar Phokeerdass","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47593456304279,"sku":"9798231580613","price":1605.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9798231580613.webp?v=1774981974","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/mauritius-the-crossroads-curse-9798231580613","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
