Praise for Murder in Moonlit Square:

‘Never cross a nun! Offbeat detecting duo Sister Agatha from Ireland and Avtar from India bring a fresh twist to cosy crime amidst the glamour and grime of deadly Delhi. I loved it!’ Robert Thorogood, creator of the Death in Paradise and Marlow Murder Club series.

‘Takes us to the colour and crowds of modern Delhi, in pursuit of a killer. A charming start to a vibrant new mystery series’ Vaseem Khan, author of the Q and Malabar House series.

‘A pacy, charming thriller that mixes the romance of old Delhi with the energy of the modern megacity it has become. Do read this book!’ Amish, broadcaster and author of the The Shiva Trilogy and Ram Chandra Series.

'Rich, layered and multi-faceted, this is Paul Waters at his best. Murder in Moonlit Square has everything you could hope for in cosy crime: unforgettable characters, a compelling mystery and a wicked sense of humour. Waters has established himself a masterful voice in crime fiction.’ Awais Khan, author of No Honour and Someone Like Her.

‘This colourful novel takes us through the streets and back alleys of Delhi where we can almost smell the spices and baking tandooris off the page. This is vivid and empathetic storytelling by a writer who can intrigue us with a mystery and knows India well enough to take us there and show us around.’ Malachi O’Doherty, author and broadcaster.
