The Detective
by Ajay Chowdhury, Ajay Chowdhury
Kamil Rahman has finally officially joined the Metropolitan Police as a detective. he may be the new boy but Tahir is his mentor and so he is given opportunities. When a tech CEO is murdered there is panic around a billion dollar sale of secret software and others associated with program are also dispatched. Meanwhile Kamil's friend Anjoli is investigating the bones uncovered at the original crime scene, related to an unreported murder over 100 years ago.
I have really loved the first two novels in this series, they are sparky and a little different. Of course it helps that they are set in the area I used to live in. However what is really strong here is that issues around prejudice are explored in a completely natural and non-hyped manner - Hindu/Muslim, anti-Semitism, institutional racism etc. The way these are wound deep into the plot without appearing as gratuitous add-ons is excellent.
