For centuries, the Koh-i-Noor diamond has set man against man and king against king. Now part of the British Crown Jewels, the priceless gem is a prize that many have killed to possess. So when the Crown Jewels go on display in Mumbai, security is everyone's principal concern. And yet, on the very day Inspector Chopra visits the exhibition, the diamond is stolen from under his nose. The heist was daring and seemingly impossible. The hunt is on for the culprits. But it soon becomes clear that only one man -- and his elephant -- can possibly crack this case. . . Featuring the most charming crime-solving duo ever to grace the pages of a book, the Baby Ganesh Detective Agency series is a must-read for fans of Alexander McCall Smith.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A novel of swashbuckling action in the series featuring the classic hero who saves innocents from the guillotine in Revolutionary France . . . “We seek him here! we seek him there! Those Frenchies seek him everywhere! Is he in heaven? Is he in hell? That demmed elusive Pimpernel?” Sir Percy thought he left his enemy vanquished, humiliated, and debased in Calais. Oh, how foolish he was. Now Chauvelin is bent on revenge . . . As punishment for letting the Scarlet Pimpernel escape the clutches of the French Republic, Chauvelin was demoted from the ranks of Robespierre’s trusted few. But he will have his day. Laying a trap for the wife of Sir Percy, Lady Marguerite, is only the first step. Can Sir Percy elude the blade of Madame Guillotine a second time, defend his honor as the Scarlet Pimpernel, and save his wife from a fate worse than death? Baroness Emma Orczy brings us the third thrilling installment in her iconic adventures of the Scarlet Pimpernel, pitting Sir Percy against the wily Chauvelin once again in a battle of wit and cunning that stands between thousands of innocent lives and the ignominious bite of Madame Guillotine. Credited with the introduction of the “hero with a secret identity” trope, the Scarlet Pimpernel and his exploits have captured the imaginations of readers for over a century. The series housing the most historical accuracies of French Revolution-centric fiction of its time, it also inspired a stage play garnering over 2,000 performances in four years. Join the League of the Scarlet Pimpernel and dive into the rollicking adventures of the masked hero of the French Revolution!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spy-catcher Chauvelin travels to England to find Sir Percy Blakeney, the Scarlet Pimpernel, and take him back to France where he’ll be put to death. With help from a struggling actress, Chauvelin attempts to bring the hero to justice. Sir Percy Blakeney and his wife, Marguerite have left France and are currently staying in England. Following the events of the previous book, the French officer Chauvelin is even more committed to the capture of the elusive Scarlet Pimpernel. He hires a young actress, Désirée Candielle, to help manipulate both Marguerite and Sir Percy. When the parties collide, Chauvelin and Sir Percy are forced into a duel that has potentially fatal consequences for everyone involved. The Elusive Pimpernel is another entry in the popular Scarlet Pimpernel series. It gives a better look at what drives the villainous Chauvelin. With the addition of his partner, Désirée, this is a multilayered story with higher stakes and a more dangerous outcome. With an eye-catching new cover, and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of The Elusive Pimpernel is both modern and readable.
