Description

Sharadindu Bandyopadhay’s Byomkesh Bakshi mysteries, featuring the expert inquisitor Byomkesh Bakshi, started a new era in Bengali popular literature.

Byomkesh’s world is fascinating because of its present flavour, with superbly characterised characters and a brilliantly depicted pre-Independence metropolitan atmosphere.
The stories, now available in English for the first time in a magnificent translation, will captivate every fan of crime fiction, young and old.
