A disappearance in Fiji

 
After a promising start to his police career in Hong Kong, Akal Singh has been sent to the far-flung colony of Fiji as punishment for a humiliating professional mistake. Lonely and embarrassed, he dreams of solving a big case, thereby redeeming himself and gaining permission to leave. When an indentured Indian woman goes missing from a sugarcane plantation, the inspector-general reluctantly assigns Akal the case. But as soon as Akal arrives on the plantation, he identifies several troubling inconsistencies in the plantation owners' stories, and it seems there is more to this disappearance than meets the eye.
