Inspector Singh returns in the fifth chapter of his trademark series, where he journeys throughout Asia busting crimes!

Stop No. 5: India . . .

Inspector Singh is sick of sick leave, so when Mrs Singh suggests they attend a family wedding in Mumbai, he grudgingly agrees - hoping that the spicy Indian curries will make up for extended exposure to his wife's relatives.

Unfortunately, the beautiful bride to be disappears on the eve of her wedding - did she run away to avoid an arranged marriage, or is there something more sinister afoot? When a corpse is found, the fat inspector is soon dragged into a curious murder investigation with very firm instructions from Mrs Singh to exonerate her family. But as he uncovers layer upon layer of deceit, he knows it isn't going to be that easy...

'It's impossible not to warm to the portly, sweating, dishevelled, wheezing Inspector Singh' Guardian
