Id be surprised if I read a better book this year M. W. CRAVEN This is a crime novel for everyone; for those who love traditional mysteries there are clues, codes and ciphers, but it also had a harder edge and a post-war darkness. Brilliant ANN CLEEVES A priceless manuscript. A missing scholar. A trail of riddles. For over a century, one of the worlds great treasures, a six-hundred-year-old copy of Dantes The Divine Comedy , has been safely housed at Bombays Asiatic Society. But when it vanishes, together with the man charged with its care, British scholar and war hero, John Healy, the case lands on Inspector Persis Wadias desk. Uncovering a series of complex riddles written in verse, Persis - together with English forensic scientist Archie Blackfinch - is soon on the trail. But then they discover the first body. As the death toll mounts it becomes evident that someone else is also pursuing this priceless artefact and will stop at nothing to possess it . . . Harking back to an era of darkness, this second thriller in the Malabar House series pits Persis, once again, against her peers, a changing India, and an evil of limitless intent. Gripping, immersive, and full of Vaseem Khans trademark wit, this is historical fiction at its finest. A delicious treat of a historical crime novel OBSERVER Thoroughly enjoyable DAILY MAIL *** Book one in this series, Midnight at Malabar House , won the CWA Sapere Books Historical Dagger and is an international ebook bestseller. *** A wonderful, pacy, literary mystery with a brilliant female protagonist.

Inspector Persis Wadia is a brilliant creation and The Dying Day is a triumph. This is my favourite new crime series, and I cant recommend it highly enough. Treat yourself!
