The Reluctant Detective Kay, aka Kanan Mehra, is a thirty-something suburban housewife, and young mother with a penchant for sticking her curious nose into things she definitely, absolutely and certainly shouldn't go near. When a couple of corpses turn up in quick succession in her neighbourhood, she teams up with her detective friend, Runa, in a half-hearted attempt to find the murderers, only to suspect that perhaps the detective business doesn't quite become her. A hilarious account of how not to get involved in other people's murders, The Reluctant Detective is every school-gate mom, searching for a purpose to her life beyond kitty lunches, shopping and fish pedicures. About the Author: Kiran Manral Kiran Manral is a freelance writer, blogger and media consultant who lives in Mumbai with her family.
