'Perveen Mistry is a rule-breaking badass in a sari. She has emotional intelligence and a thirst for women's rights. She can pick a lock with a hairclip and save the day with the sharpened nib of a fountain pen and a bottle of pungent rose oil.' The Spinoff
'Perveen Mistry has all the pluck you want in a sleuthing lawyer, as well as a not-so-surprising - but decidedly welcome - proclivity for poking her nose into the business of others. The pages do indeed fly.' The Globe and Mail
Introducing Perveen Mistry, a courageous young lawyer-turned-sleuth in a stunning murder mystery.
Armed with a legal education from Oxford, Perveen Mistry has joined her father's law firm, becoming one of the first female lawyers in India.
Mistry Law has been appointed to execute the will of Mr Omar Farid, a wealthy mill owner who has left three widows behind. But when Perveen examines the paperwork, she notices something that seems very strange.
As Perveen inches closer to the truth, tensions escalate to murder, the widows fall under suspicion and Perveen must figure out what's really happening on Malabar Hill.
