A Case Book of Mysteries (Book 4)
Three cases. Three dangerous mysteries. One detective who refuses to stop until the truth is uncovered.
In A Case Book of Mysteries (Book 4), Detective Chand returns with three gripping investigations that take him from ancient temples and royal palaces to museums, forgotten forts, secret passages and the shadowy world of international antiquities trafficking.
In The Secret of the Trident Temple, Chand is drawn into a dangerous mystery surrounding an ancient temple and a stolen sacred relic. What begins as a seemingly impossible theft soon leads to a secret network dealing in India's priceless cultural treasures. As Chand and his companion Deb follow a trail of clues through hidden locations, suspicious collectors, smugglers and clandestine auctions, they discover that someone within the circle of trust may be working against them. Their investigation ultimately brings Chand face-to-face with a powerful mastermind whose obsession with ancient treasures threatens to destroy the very heritage he claims to admire.
In The Palace of Secrets, Chand's peaceful visit to Udaipur turns into a high-stakes investigation when a Maharaja mysteriously disappears from his heavily guarded palace. Searching through lavish chambers, ancient books and hidden passages, Chand uncovers a web of family rivalries, political ambition and betrayal. But the disappearance is only the beginning. Beneath the palace walls lies a conspiracy to overthrow the Maharaja and seize control of the kingdom. As Chand races against time, he must determine whom he can trust before the conspirators make their final move.
In The Case of the Stolen Seal, a priceless 5,000-year-old Indus Valley seal vanishes from a national museum under seemingly impossible circumstances. With the security system mysteriously disabled and no clear evidence of how the thief entered or escaped, Chand begins a painstaking investigation. His search leads him into hidden museum storage rooms, secret collections and an abandoned fort where stolen archaeological treasures are being prepared for illegal sale. What initially appears to be a single theft soon reveals a much larger antiquities-smuggling operation-and a criminal network determined to stay one step ahead of the law.
Across all three cases, Detective Chand must rely on observation, deduction, courage and an instinct for uncovering what others would rather keep hidden.
Ancient secrets. Stolen treasures. Royal conspiracies. Hidden enemies.
From the sacred corridors of an ancient temple to the shadowy chambers of a royal palace and the dangerous underground world of antiquities smugglers, A Case Book of Mysteries (Book 4) delivers three fast-moving detective adventures filled with suspense, intrigue, investigation and unexpected danger.
If you enjoy detective mysteries, archaeological adventures, historical secrets, Indian settings, stolen-art investigations, conspiracies and intelligent crime-solving, this collection will take you on three unforgettable journeys where every clue matters-and nothing is quite what it seems.
