Inhaltsangabe

An intelligent, beguiling murder mystery filled with depth and emotion

Murder of a Judge is an emotional and twisty murder mystery set in the lush landscapes of southern India, where secrets run as deep as the backwaters and justice is never as simple as it seems.
When arrogant and inflexible Judge Mohan Pillai is killed in his ancestral home by what appears to be a gunshot fired through a window, Inspector Ashok Anand knew that he was facing one of the most challenging cases of his career, for the judge had made many enemies both inside and outside the courtroom. As the Inspector, who is grappling with his own personal grief, proceeds with his investigation, he finds himself uncovering a web of family feuds, buried scandals, and long-forgotten grudges. Rich in atmosphere and emotional intensity, Murder of a Judge is more than a whodunit; it’s a deeply human story of both the investigator and the murdered man. Perfect for fans of Louise Penny and Tana French, this is a page-turner that grips you till the final, devastating twist.
