The Perfect Murder won an Edgar Special Award from the Mystery Writers of America
as well as the Crime Writers Association Golden Dagger Award.

It is Inspector Ghote's bad luck to be landed with the case of the perfect murder at the start of
his career with the Bombay Police, for in this most baffling of crimes there is the cunning and important tycoon
Lala Varde to contend with. And as if this were not enough, he finds himself having to investigate the mysterious
theft of one rupee from the desk of yet another Very Important Person, the Minister of Police Affairs and the
Arts. "If people would only behave in a simple, reasonable, logical way," sighs the Inspector as he struggles
through the quagmires of incompetence and corruption to solve these curious crimes.

"Author H.R.F. Keating has created several very clever, entertaining, and unique detectives. In The Perfect
Murder, Inspector Ghote's at the helm in Bombay. The main character, Lala Varde, speaks in rhyme, which
Davidson portrays splendidly in an Indian accent. The book has multiple characters, yet Davidson renders each
of them distinct. This audio presentations is an enhancement of the written work, which can bog down."
