However, not just for Vish Puri, this month turned out to be full of surprises and excitement for me as well, at least as far as my reading pattern is concerned.
These and many other questions are tackled in the 298 page long detective story ‘The Case of the Missing Servant’ by Tarquin Hall, where Vish Puri does a brilliant job of unmasking a thrilling mystery, encountering quite a lot of surprises and facing plethora of sensitive issues. Will Vish Puri be able to prove his convictions right? Will he be able to trace the fate of the girl, known only as Mary, without a surname, address or photograph to count upon? Or will he himself be killed by an unknown danger? He is the proprietor of Most Private Investigator, a self confessed disciple of Chanakya, who firmly believes that Kasliwal is innocent. Is the lawyer really guilty of the crime or is he just a victim of water mafia? Is Mary brutally murdered, as are hundreds of other poor girls or is she lucky enough to survive rape and murder assault? As the story moves back and forth between Delhi and Jaipur, Vish Puri comes into picture. Kasliwal is a hard employer, known to be severe with her servants, and the lawyer himself is a promiscuous man, suspected by police to have molested and murdered the young girl, Mary.
A maidservant employed by a high profile lawyer, Kasliwal goes missing from his house.
