(Monkey Thieves/2011) It?s been 18 months since the Galta Gang divided in two with Bipin, Yash, Tito and the rest of their splinter troop finding a new permanent home at one of Jaipur?s city centre fruit markets.
At Galta temple, Zamir has proved to be one of the group?s strongest leaders but recently troop queen Rani hasn?t quite been herself. At eighteen it seems old age is really taking its toll.
Time has also caught up with Bipin, Yash and Tito. This trio of four year olds are now sexually mature and as soon as male macaques show signs of interest in their opposite sex, they face being banished by the troop?s alpha male.
As one of the hottest summers on record sets in, each of our key characters face some of their biggest challenges to date. And with a new troop causing untold havoc on the city streets, this continuing story of love, death, friendship and war reaches a brand new level.
