Su questo libro

Recensione:

A lively, engaging and often exciting Indian travel book (Robert Carver, Times Literary Supplement)

Richly observed and brilliantly written, this book combines travel narrative with a thrilling plot that is hard to put down (Louise Earl, Daily Express)

A masterful piece of writing, full of suspense and crisis of plot...Above all, Hall is to be congratulated on writing a book that promises humour and adventure, and delivers both (Spectator)

This remarkable book is more than just a ripping yarn: it is also a beautifully observed, richly textured portrait of a little visited corner of India...A wonderful book that should become a classic (Daily Mail)
