Inspector Ghote Breaks an Egg

Author: H. R. F. Keating

A BODY WITH NO ORGANS AND INSPECTOR GHOTE WITH A MISSION – BUT NO CLUES.

In a small, provincial town in the heart of India, a politician's wife died under suspicious circumstances. That the corpse and the trail have been cold for fifteen years hasn't saved Inspector Ghote of the Bombay CID from being sent to investigate. But what chance does he have when his chief suspect is so powerful, when the whole district is against him, and when a holy man is fasting to the death to protest his prying?

But still the good inspector dutifully goes, carrying just the honour of his police force and a box of double-sized eggs . . .

Inspector Ghote Trusts the Heart

By H. R. F. Keating

THERE'S BEEN A KIDNAPPING . . . JUST NOT THE RIGHT ONE.

Some crooks have tried to snatch the plump son of a business tycoon, and have accidentally made off with his playmate instead. But they're not changing their plan: a payment is to be delivered to them or a small corpse is to be delivered to Inspector Ghote.

But what kind of ransom can a mere tailor's boy demand? And, as something more unpleasant...
