About this listen

In the gripping new Baby Ganesh Agency novel, Inspector Chopra and his elephant sidekick investigate the death of one of Mumbai's wealthiest citizens, a murder with ramifications for its poorest.

The Parsees are among the oldest, most secretive and most influential communities in the city: respected, envied and sometimes feared.

When prominent industrialist Cyrus Zorabian is murdered on holy ground, his body dumped inside a Tower of Silence - where the Parsee dead are consumed by vultures - the police dismiss it as a random killing. But his daughter is unconvinced.

Chopra, uneasy at entering this world of power and privilege, is soon plagued by doubts about the case.

But murder is murder. And in Mumbai, wealth and corruption go in hand in hand, inextricably linking the lives of both high and low....

I look forward to Khan's books and this did not disappoint. I would have liked a bit more of Ganesh in it - he is more in the background this time, although (as expected) saves the day at some point. I wasn't sure about the narration at first but got into it. Overall an enjoyable listen.

A good successor to previous books

I've read several books in the excellent Inspector Chopra series and enjoyed all of them. Madhav Sharma's narration was perfect for the story. I love his slow pace and the way he interprets characters. He's a fine old-fashioned storyteller.

A good story brilliantly told

Enjoyed this latest audiobook with clear narration which added to the enjoyment. Only four stars as it was just a bit too detailed for me - I am squeamish - about the Parsee way of death. I enjoy this series, is it not too complicated but still tells a rattling good yarn.

Up to his usual high standard
