Krátky popis
'A moving and confident novel about the preciousness of life'
Nikesh Shukla'A brilliant debut' (Ian McEwan) picked as one to
watch by the Guardian, Observer, Vogue and StylistThree weeks ago I
was only a schoolkid but now I'm a detective and also a tea-shop
boy... Nine-year-old Jai watches too many reality cop shows, thinks
he's smarter than his friend Pari (even though she always gets top
marks) and considers himself to be a better boss than Faiz (even
though Faiz is the one with a job). When a boy at school goes
missing, Jai decides to use the crime-solving skills he has picked
up from episodes of Police Patrol to find him. With Pari and Faiz
by his side, Jai ventures into some of the most dangerous parts of
the sprawling Indian city, the bazaar at night, and even the
railway station at the end of the Purple Line. But kids continue to
vanish, and the trio must confront terrified parents, an
indifferent police force and soul-snatching djinns in order to
uncover the truth. 'Djinn Patrol is storytelling at its best' Anne
Enright, Booker-prize winning author of The Gathering'Irresistibly
brimming with character and personality, I couldn't stop picking it
up for the bright lights of the writing.I also love the fact that
it addresses an important issue while opening a window on everyday
life in India. Wonderful' Diana Evans
