Midnight at Malabar House
Winner of the CWA Historical Dagger and Shortlisted for the Theakstons Crime Novel of the Year (The Malabar House Series)
Vaseem Khan
On the eve of Indian independence, the murder of a prominent British politician is a complication no one wants. Fortunately, the authorities have the answer: the team of misfits and eccentrics stuck in the basement of Bombay House. Led by the first female officer, Persis Wadia, they can safely be given this hot potato of a case. If they fail, no one will be surprised. If they succeed, so much the better. Daughter of an independence fighter, entirely uninterested in settling down, Persis is both ambitious and determined to serve her new country. With the help of her motley crew, she is determined to leave no stone unturned - even if that means exposing things that many powerful figures in both Britain and India would rather leave in the dark. The first in an exciting new historical crime series, taking Vaseem Khan's trademark humour, rich characterisation and gripping mysteries into a fascinating new setting.
