One crime that couldn't have happened, one that probably hasn't.  nothing's ever easy for inspector ghote. In the house of Lala Varde, a vast man of even vaster influence, an attack has taken place. Varde's secretary, Mr Perfect, has been struck on his invaluable business head. And try as Inspector Ghote might to remain conscientious and methodical, his investigation is beset on all sides by cunning, disdain and corruption. And then there's another urgent case to be dealt with: the impossible theft of a single rupee . . . The Perfect Murder introduced Inspector Ghote: Bombay CID's most dogged, dutiful officer, and one of the greatest, most engaging creations in all detective fiction.
