A vast tent city has sprung up outside the old walled enclave of Mughal Delhi, where the British are hosting a grand Durbar to celebrate the coronation of the new King, George V. Maharaja Sikander Singh of Rajpore is growing increasingly bored, cooling his heels at the Majestic Hotel as he awaits George V's arrival. Just as his frustration is about to peak, a pair of British officers shoulders in. They insist that he accompany them to the British Encampment. Lord Hardinge, overruling several subordinates, tells Sikander that his services as a sleuth are needed by King and country. Sworn to secrecy, Sikander is ushered into George V's personal chambers. And there he finds the cause for his extraordinary summons--an exquisite nautch-girl, hanged until dead. Employing techniques he has learned from studying Eugene Vidocq and Sherlock Holmes, Sikander examines the scene and demonstrates the girl was not a suicide, but murdered"-- $c Provided by publisher. 600 00 $a George $b V, $c King of Great Britain, $d 1865-1936 $v Fiction. 610 10 $a Great Britain. $b Army $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Murder $x Investigation $v Fiction. $9 263322 650 0 $a Young women $x Crimes against $v Fiction. $9 232115 651 0 $a India $x History $v Fiction. 655 7 $a Detective and mystery fiction. $2 lcgft $9 802168 800 1 $a Gaind, Arjun. $t Maharajah mysteries ; $v bk. 2. 941 $a 2 952 $l GZPE631 $d 20240305014516.0 952 $l FXPH314 $d 20220909050145.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=D115E1E6373811E9B7E2BD1697128E48 994 $a C0 $b KAYInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
