Description
Set in post-independence Bombay, this atmospheric historical mystery follows Inspector Persis Wadia as she investigates a baffling murder with roots reaching far beyond the city. As the case draws her into a web of secrets, political tensions, and buried loyalties, Persis must confront the limits placed on her both as a woman and as one of India’s first female police detectives. Rich in period detail and driven by a compelling investigation, the novel explores identity, justice, colonial aftermath, and the personal cost of uncovering the truth.
