À propos de cet audio
In the fourth rip-roaring thriller in the award-winning Malabar House series, Persis and Archie travel to the old colonial capital of Calcutta, where they collide head-on with the prejudices and bloody politics of an era engulfed in flame.
Can a white man receive justice in post-colonial India?
Bombay, 1950
James Whitby, sentenced to death for the murder of prominent lawyer and former Quit India activist Fareed Mazumdar, is less than two weeks from a date with the gallows. In a last-ditch attempt to save his son, Whitby's father, arch-colonialist, Charles Whitby, forces a new investigation into the killing.
The investigation leads Inspector Persis Wadia of the Bombay Police to the old colonial capital of Calcutta, where, with the help of Scotland Yard criminalist Archie Blackfinch, she uncovers a possible link to a second case, the brutal murder of an African-American G.I. during the Calcutta Killings of 1946.
How are the cases connected? If Whitby didn't murder Mazumdar, then who did? And why?

Gripping to the very end
I have listened to all of the books in this series and I think this is the one that elevates it from a really good mystery series to something more, something special. I marvelled at how Khan toyed with the timeline to create a level of suspense that was masterful and extremely entertaining. The characters are growing stronger with each book and the introspection in this book was hard to listen to at times because it was so real. The twists and turns were fantastic as well. Most of all, when I'm listening to these books I feel like I'm there, living the story with the characters. I just finished the book and my heart is still pounding. I can't wait for the next one.
