Category: Comic Fiction
Publisher: HarperCollins Publishers India

Who Killed My Pumpkin, Please? is proof that anything is better with a good laugh. Even a good murder. It introduces the latest spy on the block – the outrageous opinionated parrot-green- sari-wearing Gulabi, catapulted straight from her sleepy village into a bustling metropolis, into the middle of a murder mystery, involving a real live dead head. Much drunk poetry and blood- thirsty threats later, she fumbles through the crime to its photo-finish, leaving a trail of chaos
and hysteria in her wake.

Gulabi struggles to solve the mystery while single-mindedly bridegroom-trapping; holding her own in her very special brand of Queen’s English which meanders, as she does, to the turns and twists of a murder-gone-madder.
