The Case of the Love Commandos (Vish Puri)

The Case of the Love Commandos (Vish Puri)

In one of the ten best mysteries of the year (Seattle Times), private investigator Vish Puri becomes embroiled in a high-stakes mystery involving one of Indiaâ€™s most controversial commodities: love.

When Ram and Tulsi fall in love, the young womanâ€™s parents are dead set against the union. Sheâ€™s from a high-caste family; heâ€™s from the lowest strata of Indian society. Young Tulsiâ€™s father locks her up and promises to hunt down the â€œloverboy dog.â€ Fortunately, Indiaâ€™s Love Commandos, a real-life group of volunteers dedicated to helping mixed-caste couples, come to the rescue. But just after they liberate Tulsi, Ram is mysteriously snatched from his hiding place.

The task of finding him falls to Indiaâ€™s â€œMost Private Investigator.â€ Unfortunately, Vish Puri is not having a good month. Heâ€™s failed to recover a cache of stolen jewels. His wallet has been stolen, and heâ€™s having to rely on his infuriating Mummy-ji to get it back. And to top it all, his archrival, investigator Hari Kumar, is also trying to locate Ram. To reunite the star-crossed lovers and reclaim his rightful place as Indiaâ€™s unchallenged â€œMost Private Investigator,â€ Puri and his team of operatives must infiltrate Ramâ€™s village and navigate the caste politics shaped by millennia-old prejudices.

Critics hailed The Case of the Deadly Butter Chicken, the last installment in the Vish Puri mystery series, as Tarquin Hallâ€™s best yet, saying that each book has â€œraised the stakes subtlyâ€ (The Huffington Post). Now, â€œonce again, Indiaâ€™s Most Private Investigator solves his case with panacheâ€ (Kirkus Reviews).
