Tarquin Hall: The Case of the Elusive Bombay Duck
Vish Puri #6
You may not know that the world’s greatest detective is Delhi based Vish Puri, but if you read this sweetly sunny book you will immediately find yourself fascinated by his family and work life. As the story opens, Vish has just been named “International Detective of the Year,” but, unfortunately, the “confidential” news has leaked prematurely, and his office is quickly deluged with congratulatory phone calls and sweets. Even worse, his mother phones to inform him that she plans to accompany him and his wife to London for the award ceremony, which an unwelcome associate has also pledged to attend.
