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.

Two nights ago a young woman brought her husband into the emergency room of the Sriphat Hospital in Thailand, where he passed away. A guard thinks she remembers her coming in before but with a different husband - one who also died. Ladarat Patalung, for one, would have been happier without a serial murderer - if there is one - loose in her hospital. Then again, she never expected to be a detective in the first place.

When Inspector Shanti de Silva moves with his English wife, Jane, to his new post in the sleepy hill town of Nuala, he anticipates a more restful life than police work in the big city entails. However an arrogant plantation owner with a lonely wife, a crusading lawyer, and a death in suspicious circumstances present him with a riddle that he will need all his experience to solve. Set on the exotic island of Ceylon (modern Sri Lanka) in the 1930s, Trouble in Nuala is an entertaining and absorbing mystery spiced with humor and a colorful cast of characters.

Twenty-six-year-old Beatrice Hyde-Clare is far too shy to investigate the suspicious death of a fellow guest in the Lake District. A spinster who lives on the sufferance of her relatives, she would certainly not presume to search the rooms of her host's son and his friend looking for evidence. Reared in the twin virtues of deference and docility, she would absolutely never think to question the imperious Duke of Kesgrave about anything, let alone how he chose to represent the incident to the local constable. And yet that's exactly what she does.

Sharing lodging in the sleepy English village of Walmsley Parva has eased some of the financial strain on the two old school chums, but money is still tight in these years following the Great War. So when the local vicar - and pigeon-racing club president - approaches them with a private inquiry opportunity, the ladies accept. There's been a spot of bother: The treasurer has absconded with the club's funds and several prized birds. But when they visit the man's loft, they find their elusive quarry lying in white feathers and a pool of crimson blood - the only witnesses cooing mournfully.

When death instead takes her handsome young friend Valentino - and under mysterious circumstances at that - Poldi will not take it lying down. Perhaps it's in her blood, but Auntie Poldi's hunting instincts have never felt more alive. Justice must be served - if it's the last thing she does....

Publisher's Summary
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....
Critic Reviews
"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)

A Mumbai Mystery
This new series has shown up on several lists for "best new books" and "must read books" so I gave it a try. It paints a multilayered and engaging picture of India. It is at once funny, quirky, and eccentric. It offers a cross section look at life in the teeming city of Mumbai where crime, corruption, poverty and excess all live shoulder to shoulder. Technically it is a cozy but with serious under tones. I loved the cast of characters right down to Ganesha the baby elephant. I thought it was just the right blend of crime solving, atmosphere and quirkiness. I really enjoyed it. Book two comes out in May.

Delightful!
Any additional comments?
This delightful debut for the "Baby Ganesh Investigation" series is a captivating and quirky listen.
Inspector Chopra is retiring at the insistence of his wife Poppy, following a heart attack. At least, he is trying to retire. But a murder case that seems highly suspicious arrives at the station on his last day. He finds he cannot let it go and decides to conduct an unofficial investigation.
Also, on his last day, he is presented with an additional problem when he receives an unusual inheritance from his uncle: a baby elephant named Ganesh. As he conducts his investigation that leads him into dangerous waters, he ponders what to do with his new gift. As the story delightfully unfolds, Inspector Chopra not only solves the case, he acquires a new partner and a new direction for his life.
The author writes with skill, moving the story along with snappy dialogue and humor.
Sartaj Garewal's accent adds just the right note of authenticity as he skillfully narrates the book.
I'm on to book two!

Tells, Doesn't Show
The performance is great, but the novel insists on telling us everything in long bouts of expisition instead of showing. Throw in long asides that are added instead of meaningful foreshadowing and it's painful.
And for a story involving a baby elephant, said elephant feels randomly tacked on to the story and is just the occasional prop.

This book was just plain fun. Light, entertaining and held my interest throughout. The main character & his fretful but feisty wife were lovable & the elephant added a delightful twist . The reader was engaging. Will definitely look forward to listening to more by the reader & author.

A pleasant read/listen.
Pretty good character development for an introduction, but only because it doesn't pretend to be realistic. Interesting and likable, but sort of comic-bookish. The narrator did a good job, and the book seems to give some insight into life in India's largest city.

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.
