The Strange Disappearance of a Bollywood Star: Baby Ganesh Agency Investigation, cartea 3
Autor Vaseem Khanen Limba Engleză Paperback – 17 iul 2017
Mumbai
is
a
city
that
thrives
on
extravagant
spectacles
and
larger-than-life
characters.
But as Chopra is about to discover, even in the city of dreams, there is no guarantee of a happy ending.
Rising star and incorrigible playboy Vikram Verma has disappeared, leaving his latest film in jeopardy. Hired by Verma's formidable mother to find him, Inspector Chopra and his sidekick, baby elephant Ganesha, embark on a journey deep into the world's most flamboyant movie industry.
As they uncover feuding stars, failed investments and death threats, it seems that many people have a motive for wanting Verma out of the picture.
And yet, as Chopra has long suspected, in Bollywood the truth is often stranger than fiction...

Notă biografică
Vaseem
Khan
first
saw
an
elephant
lumbering
down
the
middle
of
the
road
in
1997
when
he
arrived
in
India
to
work
as
a
consultant.
It
was
the
most
unusual
thing
he'd
ever
encountered
and
served
as
the
inspiration
behind
his
series
of
crime
novels.
He
returned
to
the
UK
in
2006
and
now
works
at
University
College
London
for
the
Department
of
Security
and
Crime
Science
where
he
is
astonished
daily
by
the
way
modern
science
is
being
employed
to
tackle
crime.
