The Bombay Prince: A Mystery of 1920s India
Bombay’s first female lawyer, Perveen Mistry, is compelled to bring justice to the family of a murdered female Parsi student just as Bombay’s streets erupt in riots to protest British colonial rule . . .
Sujata Massey returns with The Bombay Prince, the third installment to her Agatha and Mary Higgins Clark Award-winning 'Perveen Mistry' series set in sumptuous 1920s Bombay, India.
"Perveen is much more than a sari-clad Miss Marple: she's Bombay's first female lawyer as well as a keenly intelligent sleuth, a trail-blazing woman balancing the weight of family tradition with her own dreams. Perveen's investigation into the mysterious death of a young university student coincides with the imperial visit of the future Edward VIII, and the resulting trail of breadcrumbs through royal receptions, street riots, squalid jails, and lavish hotels makes for a deliciously satisfying read!” -- Kate Quinn, author of The Rose Code, The Alice Network, Mistress of Rome, and The Diamond Eye
