A lost dog, a stolen scooter…and a spicy murder.
All are on the menu at Queen Victoria’s Empire Restaurant.
On a hot summer’s night in Canapur, a thief steals Queen Victoria’s prized scooter.
Yes, yes, the police will find it. But only when they’ve solved their more pressing cases.
Such as?
Such as the Englishwoman’s lost dog. Perhaps if Queen Victoria could help with that, they might…
And so begins her career as an amateur detective.
Soon she is asking awkward questions. Why is the Englishwoman offering such a huge reward for a yellow street dog? And why did the goondah who stole Queen Victoria’s Honda dump it unscathed with a full tank of petrol.
Then a new darker question arises: how did the beautiful and rich Sunita die alone in her locked penthouse.
Queen Victoria sifts through all the ingredients and finds out what’s really cooking in Canapur.
