About this listen
Mumbai, murder, and a baby elephant combine in a charming, joyful mystery for fans of Alexander McCall Smith and Harold Fry.
On the day he retires, Inspector Ashwin Chopra inherits two unexpected mysteries. The first is the case of a drowned boy, whose suspicious death no one seems to want solved. And the second is a baby elephant.
As his search for clues takes him across the teeming city of Mumbai, from its grand high-rises to its sprawling slums and deep into its murky underworld, Chopra begins to suspect that there may be a great deal more to both his last case and his new ward than he thought.
And he soon learns that when the going gets tough, a determined elephant may be exactly what an honest man needs....

Detective fiction at it's best
Great story. Can't wait to get the next one. India is a beautiful setting for this original take on the genre.

Charming
Easy to listen to-the names are not familiar in their sounds- but this adds to the well-read narrative and description.

Excellent
I really enjoyed this. It sets up the characters well for the next books while at the same time telling an engaging detective story.
My only criticism would be the speed of the narrator. I adjusted this on Audible but still found it a bit fast - any slower and the voice was distorted. I'd definitely recommend the book regardless and I'll be listening to more.

Pleasant enough but not gripping
This was okay but a bit dull in places, got muddled with who is who a lot. Good narrator though and as I say, pleasant enough to listen to
