A post Great War mystery perfect for fans of Jacqueline Winspear and Charles Todd.
A Scotland Yard detective tries to leave the Great War and grief of losing his wife to the flu behind by accepting a new assignment. In Calcutta with the imperial police. Soon he finds himself not only immersed in a new culture and climate, but a gruesome murder as well. With compelling characters, immersive setting, and the ever fascinating post Great War period, not to mention a twisty mystery I only guessed part of by the end, this is a perfect pick for fans of Jacqueline Winspear and Charles Todd.
