THE CASE OF THE ELUSIVE BOMBAY DUCK Vish Paul, Book 6

India's most private detective, Vish Puri, heads to London to accept the International Detective of the Year award. He's accompanied by his wife and mother. Plans soon go awry as Puri finds himself and his nephew, Jags, embroiled in the hunt for the Bombay Duck, a billionaire swindler, at the request of a top government official. Vikas Adam brings Puri and his family alive with aplomb, successfully creating believable characters, including the women. He particularly excels at delivering dialogue ranging from Puri's rich Indian intonation to Jags's London teen speak. He also highlights the humor peppered throughout the mystery. The result is an amusing listen. K.J.P. © AudioFile 2025, Portland, Maine [Published: MAY 2025]
