CRIME CHRONICLES
July 23, 2025
|The New Indian Express Bengaluru
N elderly woman lies bleeding out on the floor of her ramshackle hut — an intruder turning her home inside out in search of something she refuses to surrender.
As this mysterious killer discovers the object and flees, she clutches a picture of Bengaluru's famous female detective Kaveri. Thrusting it into the hands of a boy who discovers her, she breathes her last with a plea on her lips — find the killer.
Into the Leopard's Den ( 499; Hachette), the fourth volume of writer Harini Nagendra's best-selling cosy mystery series, Bangalore Detectives Club, dives straight into the tangled knots of this mystery, with the now pregnant 21-year-old detective, Kaveri, determined to unravel them all.
This time, the case leads her to the lush coffee plantations of Kodagu, leaving her motley crew of inquisitive neighbour aunty Uma, street urchin Venu and housemaid Anandi to investigate in Bengaluru. "While staying in the house of coffee plantation owner Lakamma, she learns of stories of a ghost leopard terrorising the place and scaring the workers away. At the same time, an exploitative British plantation owner's life is in danger from multiple attacks," explains Nagendra.
