A missing object, a lie that doesn't quite fit, a grown-up who won't answer a simple question. In ten interconnected stories, each set in a different Indian town and social setting the three of them could actually live in, they follow evidence, not assumptions — and borrow the minds of history's sharpest thinkers to do it. Hannibal's cunning helps them outmanoeuvre a smuggler. Socratic questioning helps them corner a corrupt official who thought he'd covered his tracks. Elsewhere, the courage of Porus, the vision of Ashoka, and the strategy of Chandragupta guide them just as much as any thinker from the West. The history is never a lesson — it's a weapon the kids pick up and use.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWritten in clear, accessible English for young readers, this collection was born out of the author's work teaching children in rural Bengal — but it stands on its own as a set of mysteries that trust young readers to think as hard as its young detectives do — and to care about something bigger than the mystery itself.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRajarshi Dasgupta is an officer of the Indian Revenue Service (Income Tax).
