INSPECTOR DE SILVA NOVELS SET IN COLONIAL-ERA NUWARA ELIYA PUT SRI LANKA ON THE DETECTIVE THRILLER MAP! When Inspector Shanti de Silva moves to the fictional Sri Lanka town of Nuala he finds an arrogant plantation owner with a lonely wife, a crusading lawyer, and a death in suspicious circumstances. Nuala is based on the colonial-era hill country retreat of Nuwala Eliya in pre-independence Ceylon of the 1930s, as told by acclaimed thriller writer Harriet Steel. Her Inspector de Sliva series has been compared with the legendary detective whodunits of Agatha Christie, the British creator of Hercule Poirot and Miss Marple. #SriLanka #NuwaraEliya #InspectorDeSilva #HarrietSteel
