Though said from a first person perspective of Shankar, he is told a story by Jayanto during their trip to the Circuit House in Bundi, a Rajasthani village.
While touring their accommodation, Jayanto seems to remember about a Deodar tree that was there in the area.
He recollects the tree from his childhood memories when he visited the same Circuit house with his parents.
On finding the tree Jayanto speaks about meeting a European but could not elaborate but when they return for dinner he remembers and narrates the tale of Fritz a swiss doll which was a foot tall and a gift to him from his uncle from Switzerland.
Being overly attached to the doll, Jayanto was at loss when two strays mutilated it and he buried the doll under the deodar tree.
That night Jayanto thought that Fritz is back and and visited him at night.
The next morning they go to dig the grave of Fritz to find that there is just a skeleton of the 12 inch doll.
Both of them are stunned and the story ends there.
