More About The Product
"India, captured in all its pungent, vivid glory, fascinates almost as much as the crime itself." "Splendid . . . Entertaining . . . Vish Puri is large, constantly hungry, a perpetual victim of Delhi's traffic congestion, and a wonderfully engaging P.I. . . . . A joy to read." "It's only a matter of time before Hollywood turns this into a movie or a TV show. . . . The three books develop nicely with each central mystery a little more complicated and dangerous than the one before. . . . It's quite possible that what has begun as fun series will become a genuinely great one." "A wry whodunit, with recipes" "Outstanding third mystery . . . Well drawn, colorful characters bolster a whodunit sure to appeal to those who enjoy a dash of humor with their crime." "A thoroughly engaging series... Hall has a gift for conveying the rich stew of competing cultures in contemporary India with a wonderful economy of image... Hall presents a complex hero in a complex country with a great deal of history, humor, and panache." "Vish's third outing continues the tradition of Hall's lively franchise." "These books are little gems. They are beautifully written, amusing, and intensely readable."--Alexander McCall Smith "Hall writes amusing mysteries. . . . [His] affectionate humor is embedded with barbs."--Marilyn Stasio "The New York Times Book Review " Hall writes amusing mysteries. . . .[His] affectionate humor is embedded with barbs. --Marilyn Stasio "The New York Times Book Review " These books are little gems.
