This review is from: Filmi, Filmi, Inspector Ghote (Hardcover)

H.R.F. Keating's exceptionally rich series of novels with mysteries in them takes a dive with this absorbing but one-note Bollywood murder story. Ghote is brought in to find the murderer of a famous player of Bollywood villains, and over and over the point is made that his lust for fame cripples his ability to think clearly; also, apparently life's reliable pleasures are the best. It's also structurally unsound: Ghote interviews one person, is disappointed, given another name, repeats, etc. Still, Keating is typically absorbing, and events conclude quickly enough to make it unobjectionable. His dim view of Indian police hierarchy is on better display other places.
