Detective Feluda goes for a holiday but the theft of a priceless deity of Lord Ganesh from a local household forces him to start investigation. Feluda comes in direct confrontation with Maganlal Meghraj, a ruthless trader. Maganlal makes the mild-mannered Lalmohan a knife-thrower's target and threatens Felu to stop investigation. But there are several other suspects as an innocent artisan is brutally murdered.
