The Case of the Missing Servant: From the Files of Vish Puri, Most Private Investigator Tapa blanda - 2010
de Tarquin Hall
Resumen
Meet Vish Puri, IndiaâÈçs most private investigator. Portly, persistent, and unmistakably Punjabi, he cuts a determined swath through modern IndiaâÈçs swindlers, cheats, and murderers.
In hot and dusty Delhi, where call centers and malls are changing the ancient fabric of Indian life, PuriâÈçs main work comes from screening prospective marriage partners, a job once the preserve of aunties and family priests. But when an honest public litigator is accused of murdering his maidservant, it takes all of PuriâÈçs resources to investigate. With his team of undercover operativesâÈ'Tubelight, Flush, and FacecreamâÈ'Puri combines modern techniques with principles of detection established in India more than two thousand years ago, and reveals modern India in all its seething complexity.
