Win an Autographed Copy of Vaseem Khan's Midnight at Malabar House!

 

 

It's been a couple of months or so since my last giveaway, and I'm happy to announce that I have a few lined up (like Riley Sager's Home Before Dark and Craig Johnson's Next to Last Stand) to share with you all. First up is Vaseem Khan's Midnight at Malabar House. If you like historical mysteries set in 1950s Bombay, India, you can get in at the very beginning with this first Persis Wadia mystery. I can also tell you that if you've already read Sujata Massey's excellent Perveen Mistry historical series, this is one you should enjoy.

I've already provided a link to my review of Khan's book, but here's the synopsis:

"As India celebrates the arrival of a momentous new decade, Inspector Persis Wadia stands vigil in the basement of Malabar House, home to the city's most unwanted unit of police officers. Six months after joining the force she remains India's first female police detective, mistrusted, sidelined and now consigned to the midnight shift.
And so, when the phone rings to report the murder of prominent English diplomat Sir James Herriot, the country's most sensational case falls into her lap.

As 1950 dawns and India prepares to become the world's largest republic, Persis, accompanied by Scotland Yard criminalist Archie Blackfinch, finds herself investigating a case that is becoming more political by the second. Navigating a country and society in turmoil, Persis, smart, stubborn and untested in the crucible of male hostility that surrounds her, must find a way to solve the murder - whatever the cost."

 

~~~What You Will Win~~~
