The Banglore Detective Club

by Harini Nagendra

(Saturday, 7th December, 2024)

51Da17-s-EL._SY445_SX342_.jpg

The first in a charming, joyful crime series set in 1920s Bangalore, featuring sari-wearing detective Kaveri and her husband Ramu. Perfect for fans of Alexander McCall Smith’s The No. 1 Ladies Detective Agency.

Acclaim for The Bangalore Detectives Club:
– A New York Times Notable Book of 2022
– Nominated for the Lefty and Agatha Awards for Best Debut Mystery Novel of 2022
– Nominated for the Audie Award for Best Mystery Audiobook of 2022
– Shortlisted for the CWA Historical Dagger

When clever, headstrong Kaveri moves to Bangalore to marry handsome young doctor Ramu, she’s resigned herself to a quiet life. But that all changes the night of the party at the Century Club, where she escapes to the garden for some peace and quiet—and instead spots an uninvited guest in the shadows. Half an hour later, the party turns into a murder scene. When a vulnerable woman is connected to the crime, Kaveri becomes determined to save her and launches a private investigation to find the killer, tracing his steps from an illustrious brothel to an Englishman’s mansion. She soon finds that sleuthing in a sari isn’t as hard as it seems when you have a talent for mathematics, a head for logic, and a doctor for a husband

And she’s going to need them all as the case leads her deeper into a hotbed of danger, sedition, and intrigue in Bangalore’s darkest alleyways.
