Popis

Portly, perceptive and spectacularly moustachioed, IndiaÂ’s finest private detective, Vish Puri, tackles his most difficult case to date in the long-awaited return of Tarquin HallÂ’s delightful humorous whodunit series set in New Delhi.

“Vish Puri is the Indian Poirot” Financial Times

“A wonderfully engaging PI” The Times

“Vish Puri [is] a Punjabi Sherlock Holmes” The Guardian

When Vish Puri, India’s Most Private Detective, learns he’s won the long-coveted International Detective of the Year award, it’s supposed to be a secret. But within hours, it seems all of Delhi knows – and his indomitable Mummy-ji announces she’ll be coming with him to the ceremony in London, never mind that she’s not been invited.

To add to his woes, a senior government bureaucrat gives him an undercover mission he canÂ’t refuse. Puri is tasked with tracking down IndiaÂ’s most-wanted fugitive: a billionaire pharmaceutical fraudstercodenamed Bombay Duck, whoÂ’s rumoured to be hiding in the British capital.

Puri’s only spending a week in London . . . and he’s already promised his wife he won’t work during their once-in-a-lifetime trip. In desperation, he enlists the help of his reluctant nephew Jags and dives headfirst into the case. But can Puri hook the Bombay Duck and bring him to justice – all the while keeping his investigations secret from his wife and meddling mother?

Packed with the sights, sounds and flavours of both New Delhi and London, author Tarquin Hall – who divides his time between India and the UK – delivers an irresistible read for fans of Alexander McCall Smith, Harini Nagendra and Jesse Sutanto.
