But now the car is gone. Stolen from a locked room in the middle of the night. Who stole it? The mechanic who is addicted to gambling? The angry ex-worker? The car thief pulling off one last job? And how on earth did they make it vanish from the locked garage? Inspector Chopra has just days to find the culprit - and the missing car - before its gangster owner finds out...and takes violent revenge.

Historia
When clever, headstrong Kaveri moves to Bangalore to marry handsome young doctor Ramu, she’s resigned herself to a quiet life. But that all changes the night of the party at the Century Club, where she escapes to the garden for some peace and quiet—and instead spots an uninvited guest in the shadows. Half an hour later, the party turns into a murder scene. When a vulnerable woman is connected to the crime, Kaveri becomes determined to save her and launches a private investigation to find the killer, tracing his steps from an illustrious brothel to an Englishman’s mansion.

Historia
In 1892, Bombay is the center of British India. Nearby, Captain Jim Agnihotri lays in Poona military hospital recovering from a skirmish on the wild Northern frontier, with little to read but newspapers. The case that catches Jim's attention is being called the crime of the century: Two women fell from the busy university’s clock tower in broad daylight. Moved by the widower of one of the victims - his certainty that his wife and sister did not commit suicide - Jim approaches the Framjis and is hired by the Parsee family to investigate what happened that terrible afternoon.

Lonely and grumpy, Akal plods through his work and dreams of getting back to Hong Kong.

When the Irish nanny looking after acting governor Palin's daughter dies suddenly - and in mysterious circumstances - mission school-educated local girl Su Lin - an aspiring journalist trying to escape an arranged marriage - is invited to take her place.

During intermission at the famed La Fenice opera house in Venice, Italy, a notoriously difficult and widely disliked German conductor is poisoned—and suspects abound. Guido Brunetti, a native Venetian, sets out to unravel the mystery behind the high-profile murder. To do so, he calls on his knowledge of Venice, its culture, and its dirty politics. Along the way, he finds the crime may have roots going back decades—and that revenge, corruption, and even Italian cuisine may play a role.

On the day he retires, Inspector Ashwin Chopra inherits two unexpected mysteries.
The first is the case of a drowned boy, whose suspicious death no one seems to want solved. And the second is a baby elephant.
As his search for clues takes him across the teeming city of Mumbai, from its grand high rises to its sprawling slums and deep into its murky underworld, Chopra begins to suspect that there may be a great deal more to both his last case and his new ward than he thought.
And he soon learns that when the going gets tough, a determined elephant may be exactly what an honest man needs...

Reseñas de la Crítica
"Garewal is a versatile narrator. He distinguishes between the wide cast of characters with a range of vocals including high pitches for annoying relatives, like Chopra's mother-in-law, and a singsong cadence for bumbling police officers. For this tale of mayhem, mystery, and corruption, Garewal weaves a spell that entrances the listener." (AudioFile)

The first audiobook which appeared in Georges Simenon's famous Maigret series, in a gripping new translation by David Bellos.Inevitably Maigret was a hostile presence in the Majestic. He constituted a kind of foreign body that the hotel's atmosphere could not assimilate. Not that he looked like a cartoon policeman. He didn't have a moustache and he didn't wear heavy boots. His clothes were well cut and made of fairly light worsted. He shaved every day and looked after his hands. But his frame was proletarian. He was a big, bony man.

Historia
Japanese-American Rei Shimura is a 27-year-old English teacher living in one of Tokyo's seediest neighborhoods. She doesn't make much money, but she wouldn't go back home to California even if she had a free ticket (which, thanks to her parents, she does). Her independence is threatened, when a getaway to an ancient castle town is marred by murder. Rei is the first to find the beautiful wife of a high-powered businessman, dead in the snow. Taking charge, as usual, Rei looks for clues by crashing a funeral, posing as a bar-girl, and somehow ends up pursued by police and paparazzi alike.

Great read
Fun story! Excellent narrator. Inspector Chopra, his wife, his mother-in-law, his former co-workers, and his elephant combined to make this a delightful listen.

Very Enjoyable
A well written story with suspense and humor interwoven throughout. I felt like I was in India. The author gave an unvarnished yet loving loving view of the country his character lives in. The narrator was excellent! He had me caught up on the excitement. I look forward to reading the next in the series.

Wonderfully creative detective story
Thoroughly entertaining, uplifting, renewed my faith in humankind. The kind of story you don’t want to end.

The Mumbai Detective and his Elephant
I was very taken with the setting and the main character. Not a suspenseful story or great mystery but a main character & his sidekick elephant to root for. Good narrator. I hope the author makes the wife less insipid as the books continue.

Happy to discover this author!
I absolutely loved listening to this book. The story is both compelling and adorable. I didn't have any trouble following along even though I was not familiar with some of the phrases used. Vaseem Khan expertly paints scenes, making the streets of Mumbai come to life in my mind. It didn't take long for me to deeply care for the welfare of the main characters. The narrator, Sartaj Garewal, also did a phenomenon job at voicing everyone.
I am happy I stumbled upon this book and want to listen/read the rest of this author's work.

Great story
Nice to be transported somewhere else. The see life from another part of the world. Whether totally true, partially true, or fictitious, the sights, and smells come alive. I have never been to India, and probably will never go, but I do know the culture and the way of life is different from my own. This may not be a true representation, but it certainly is a different picture than what I see daily. I enjoyed the story and look forward to the next book.
