The Case of the Deadly Butter Chicken: A Vish Puri Mystery (Vish Puri Mysteries)
“These books are little gems. They are beautifully written, amusing, and intensely readable.” (Alexander McCall Smith)“India, captured in all its pungent, vivid glory, fascinates almost as much as the crime itself.” (Entertainment Weekly)“Hall writes amusing mysteries. . . . [His] affectionate humor is embedded with barbs.” (Marilyn StasioThe New York Times Book Review)“Splendid . . . Entertaining . . . Vish Puri is large, constantly hungry, a perpetual victim of Delhi's traffic congestion, and a wonderfully engaging P.I. . . . . A joy to read.” (The Times (London))“It’s only a matter of time before Hollywood turns this into a movie or a TV show. . . . The three books develop nicely with each central mystery a little more complicated and dangerous than the one before. . . . It’s quite possible that what has begun as fun series will become a genuinely great one.” (The Huffington Post)“A wry whodunit, with recipes” (People)“Outstanding third mystery . . . Well drawn, colorful characters bolster a whodunit sure to appeal to those who enjoy a dash of humor with their crime.” (Publishers Weekly (starred review))“A thoroughly engaging series… Hall has a gift for conveying the rich stew of competing cultures in contemporary India with a wonderful economy of image… Hall presents a complex hero in a complex country with a great deal of history, humor, and panache.” (Booklist (starred review))“Vish’s third outing continues the tradition of Hall’s lively franchise.” (Kirkus Reviews)
