Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Cousins Arj, Tam, and Mira are spending their summer vacation in Elathoor, a little village in Kerala when their family home, Lili Villa, is broken into and some jewelry is stolen. The trio sets out to solve the mystery but soon discovers that there is no shortage of suspects. Is it Pinching Kodavis, the driver, or Dumdumchecchi, the milking lady? Is it the mean fisherwoman who starves the cat or the retired nurse who owns a luxury car? Or is it Mani with his upside-down Russian secret? Who could the thief possibly be?In a throwback to unscheduled summer vacations, this cozy middle-grade mystery will charm young readers with plenty of sibling sparring, some intrepid sleuthing, and an endless parade of mouth-watering snacks.
Originally published in India with the title A thud in the middle of the night.
