Any suggestions for a book set in India? I am particularly interested in the sense of place created by the author.

The Unexpected Inheritance of Inspector Chopra. First in a series, and my favorite book of the year, the year I read it.
I’ve just discovered that my wife has the second book in the series on her bookshelf! Would it spoil it if I read it before the first in the series?
Definitely should read the first one first! It introduces you to Baby Ganesh!
The Burden of Truth Pete Best.
Shantaram.
The Maharajah mysteries by Arjun Gaind set in India of the 20’s and 30’s
Abir Mukherjee has written two books both excellent reads. A Rising Man and A Necessary Evil set in India at the time of The Raj.
A book on my TBR pile is, ‘A Fine Balance’ by Rohinton Mistry. I have seen it on quite a few ‘Recommended’ lists.
Not crime but I would certainly recommend the books of Amitav Ghosh. Particularly the Glass Palace.
A fine balance by rohinton mistry is brilliant.
Thank you to everyone for your suggestions. I’ve chosen The Unexpected Inheritance of Inspector Chopra as the next book in my Crime Fiction Atlas project ?
