Özet
 India, 1951. After wilfully ignoring orders, Persis Wadia, India's first female police detective, is exiled from Bombay to the wild and mountainous Naga Hills District. As India's first post-Independence election looms, and tensions rise across the country, Persis finds herself banished to the Hotel Victoria, a crumbling colonial-era relic, her career in tatters.

But when a prominent politician is murdered in his locked room at the Victoria, his head missing, she is thrust back into the fray. Is the murderer one of the foreigners staying at the hotel or an insurgent from the surrounding jungle? As the political situation threatens to explode, Persis has only days to stop a killer operating at the very edge of darkness...

The sixth rip-roaring thriller in the award-winning Malabar House series and a perfect entry point for new readers.©2026 Vaseem Khan Ltd Cosy Crime Fiction Historical Mystery

Eleştirmen yorumları

Historical fiction at its finest
Brilliant! (Ann Cleeves)
Vaseem Khan writes with charm and wit, and an eye for detail that transports the reader entirely. I couldn't love this series more (Chris Whitaker)
Persis is a brilliant creation and this is historical fiction at its finest
Persis Wadia, denizen of India's own Slough House - Malabar House in Bombay - has been further sidelined. She is a brilliant creation... With a satisfying backdrop of little-known aspects of newly-independent India's history and the ever-present tension with the remaining British colonists, this is a richly satisfying book at many levels (Alis Hawkins)

I love these books but I really miss the interaction of Archie and really am glad he’s coming back into the next - gone too long!

Well researched and beautifully written. Wonderfully narrated by Maya Saroya. I’ve already pre-ordered the next one.

The best one so far

Vaseem certainly puts our woman through her stuff in this one. Cultural education, political history all wrapped up in a glorious tale. The scenery gives atmosphere. Finished with a quote that was no doubt wrtten with a wry smile
