    Inspector Chopra and the Million-Dollar Motor Car: A Baby Ganesh Agency short story

    Vaseem Khan

    Formats & Editions

    An enchanting Baby Ganesh Agency short story: a million-dollar car is missing. Chopra has two days to find it, or the gangster who bought it will not be happy.

    The Premier No.1 Garage is the place to go in Mumbai if you want a luxury car. Even Mumbai's biggest gangster shops there - he's just ordered a classic race car worth millions.

    But now the car is gone. Stolen from a locked room, in the middle of the night.

    Who stole it? The mechanic who is addicted to gambling? The angry ex-worker? The car thief pulling off one last job?

    And how on earth did they make it vanish from the locked garage?

    Inspector Chopra has just days to find the culprit - and the missing car - before its gangster owner finds out ... and takes violent revenge.

    Vaseem Khan first saw an elephant lumbering down the middle of the road in 1997 when he arrived in India to work as a management consultant. It was the most unusual thing he had ever seen and inspired his series of crime novels.

    He returned to the UK in 2006 and now works at University College London for the Department of Security and Crime Science. Every day that he is there he is astonished by the way modern science is being used to tackle crime. Elephants are third on his list of passions. Great literature and cricket come first and second, not always in that order.
