About A Rising Man by Abir Mukherjee

India, 1919. A man is found dead. A note has been left in the dead man’s mouth. It warns the English to leave India. If they don’t, more blood will be spilled.

Two police officers, Captain Wyndham and Sergeant Banerjee must solve the crime quickly. But there are some people who will do anything to stop them.

You won’t be able to put down A Rising Man, the first mystery in the Wyndham and Banerjee series by award-winning crime writer Abir Mukherjee.
