Firebase Server complains that firebase-admin is installed but not seen

I tried running firebase serve on my local machine and gets below warning

The Cloud Functions emulator requires the module "firebase-admin" to be installed. This package is in your package.json, but it's not available. You probably need to run "npm install" in your functions directory.

What I've tried from previous SO and github

SO and github references but non solved my problem

The Cloud Functions emulator requires the module "firebase-admin" to be installed

Im having trouble while serving or deploying Firebase Hosting Functions

https://github.com/firebase/firebase-tools/issues/1452

PS: Downgrade to version 6 is not an option.

I'm running node 8 and "firebase-admin": "^8.6.0" as shown from package.json

With the help of Hiranya Jayathilaka comment above I was able to fix this. I upgraded my node from 8.5.x to 8.16.2 and run npm install firebase-tools and everything works fine.
