**From the winner of the 2017 CWA Historical Dagger Award and the 2018 Wilbur Smith Award** Calcutta police detective Captain Sam Wyndham and his quick-witted Indian Sergeant, Surrender-not Banerjee, are back for another rip-roaring adventure set in 1920s India.
The novel switches between London boarding houses and rural India, filling in Wyndham’s back story and presenting several hugely ingenious murders. It’s a brilliant change of pace, displaying Mukherjee’s growing confidence as a writer.
