For centuries, the Koh-i-Noor diamond has set man against man and king against king. Now part of the British Crown Jewels, the priceless gem is a prize that many have killed to possess. So when the Crown Jewels go on display in Mumbai, security is everyone's principal concern. And yet, on the very day Inspector Chopra visits the exhibition, the diamond is stolen from under his nose. The heist was daring and seemingly impossible. The hunt is on for the culprits. But it soon becomes clear that only one man -- and his elephant -- can possibly crack this case. . . Featuring the most charming crime-solving duo ever to grace the pages of a book, the Baby Ganesh Detective Agency series is a must-read for fans of Alexander McCall Smith.

I am really quite fond of these :-)
I love the little, very special, elephant and his relationships with his people
I love the fact that Poppy and Chopra have basically adopted Irfan, while respecting his autonomy.
I love how Chopra is always decent, righteous and good, even when the situation would be easier to handle if he was not.
I love how Ganesha has a “hero contract”, as my husband calls it. He gets into trouble, but survives.
To me these mysteries are new, and exciting. Might not be that to all, but I don't care. :-D
