Hatyapuri by Satyajit Ray [Hardcover]

The horror of murder mixed with Puri, or the murders in Puri city—the title Hatyapuri given by the famous mystery writer Jatayu is apt in both senses. Yes, the setting for Feluda's new bloody adventure is the city of Puri. In this new environment, both the crime and the criminal are of a different kind. Even a brilliant detective like Feluda was initially taken aback. This is because the mystery behind the Puri murders was repeatedly linked to Nepal. In fact, Feluda had to confront two consecutive murders, which were consequences of an incident that began in Nepal. Abandoning his plans for a relaxing seaside vacation, Feluda had to dive deep into detective work, accompanied by his trusted companions, Topshe and Jatayu.

Without going to Nepal, Feluda unraveled an old mystery, capturing a cunning criminal and his crafty, scheming accomplice disguised as someone else. This extraordinary mystery novel, Hatyapuri, is enhanced by Satyajit Ray’s numerous unique illustrations and a cover designed by him.
