Baby Ganesh Mysteries Book 3

I love this author's books.

After finishing a few high adventure/serious books I needed a break, so I went to Baby Ganesh

Mumbai is a city that thrives on extravagant spectacles and larger-than-life characters.
But as Chopra is about to discover, even in the city of dreams, there is no guarantee of a happy ending.

Rising star and incorrigible playboy Vikram Verma has disappeared, leaving his latest film in jeopardy. Hired by Verma's formidable mother to find him, Inspector Chopra and his sidekick, baby elephant Ganesha, embark on a journey deep into the world's most flamboyant movie industry.

As they uncover feuding stars, failed investments and death threats, it seems that many people have a motive for wanting Verma out of the picture.

And yet, as Chopra has long suspected, in Bollywood the truth is often stranger than fiction. . .

If you have not met Inspector Chopra and his sidekick Baby Ganesha the elephant you really should do so. The first book is The Unexpected Inheritance of Inspector Chopra


The Granite Key was a fun read; I can tell these characters are going to have many adventures.
