An interesting detective novel with a touch of humour – that’s how this book can be summed up in one line. The style of writing makes the book vivid…the characters in the book look realistic. The plot makes you think twice – hiring Mr. Chatterjee, founder of the Chatterjee Institute of Detection and crime fighter for the common man – for securing admission for four-year-old girl to Bangalore’s snootiest school! Yes, people can go to any heights to secure admission for their children in the best school.

Yet, as the story unfolds, reader will find it difficult to put the book down before reading it from cover to cover.
