When the prince begins a tour of a number of Indian cities, he encounters passionate crowds demanding independence from Britain, with rioting on the streets of Bombay in November 1921. The mood of the prince's subsequent trip to Bangalore and Mysore in January 1922 appears, at first glance, very different and is made to large, welcoming crowds. But perhaps all is not what it seems to be. While exploring another (seemingly unrelated) crime scene, Kaveri and Ramu become tangled in a complex web of intrigue, getting pulled into a potentially dangerous plan that could endanger the life of the visiting prince. This new novel also takes us into the world of jadoo--Indian street magic--with sleight-of-hand magicians, snake charmers, and rope tricks. Kaveri and Ramu continue their sleuthing, with help from the Bangalore Detectives Club, amidst the growing rumblings of Indian independence and the backdrop of female emancipation"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 7 $a Women detectives $v Fiction. $2 Sears 650 7 $a Homicide $v Fiction. $2 Sears 650 7 $a Police $v Fiction. $2 Sears 650 7 $a Street entertainers $v Fiction. $2 Sears 650 7 $a Magic tricks $v Fiction. $2 Sears 651 7 $a Bangalore (India) $v Fiction. $2 Sears 651 7 $a India $x History $v Fiction. $2 Sears 655 7 $a Cozy mysteries. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Detective and mystery fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Historical fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Novels. $2 lcgft 800 1 $a Nagendra, Harini. $t Bangalore Detectives mystery. 941 $a 1 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20240524011542.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=05757342199311EFAA2C9EE853ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
