Synopsis Feluda's Last Case by : Satyajit Ray

Seven gripping tales of murder, mystery and intrigue featuring Satyajit Rayýs inimitable super sleuth, Feluda Feludaýs Last Case collects seven cases which span the career of Pradosh Mitter, a.k.a. Feluda. Starting with the first Feluda story, ýDanger in Darjeelingý ( 1965), in which Feluda and Topshe, his young cousin, grapple with anonymous letters, the young, keen-eyed detective grows more mature with each baffling crime he encounters. With amazing mental dexterity Feluda solves a gruesome murder case in ýTrouble in Gangtoký (1970), catches an unusual burglar in ýThe Anubis Mysteryý (1970), unravels the riddle of ýThe Keyý to a treasure (1973), lays a trap for the person who has stolen ýThe Gold Coins of Jehangirý (1983), and deals deftly with a group of kidnappers in ýThe Mystery of Nayaný (1990). The last story in this collection, ýRobertsonýs Rubyý ( 1992) was published after Satyajit Ray passed away, and brings to a close the glorious career of Feluda. In some of the stories Feluda and Topshe are assisted by Lalmohan Babu, alias Jatayu (a bumbling writer of crime fiction), who adds a touch of humour to the gripping action and high drama.

Synopsis The House of Death & Other Feluda Stories by : Satyajit Ray

Six exciting stories of deceit, intrigue and murder, featuring Rayýs super-sleuth Feluda, a.k,a, Pradosh Mitter, and his lieutenants, cousin Topshe and the dim-witted crime-writer, Lalmohan Babu. Their adventures begin in ýThe House of Deathý when a holiday to the beaches of Puri is interrupted by the theft of a priceless manuscript, quickly followed by a mysterious murder. Feludaýs skills are once more put to the test in ýNapoleonýs Letterý when the last known letter of the great emperor disappears and its owner is found murdered. Locating a missing person becomes the challenge in ýThe Disappearance of Ambar Sený which turns out to be a most unusual case, testing Feludaýs powers of detection to the full. ýCrime in Kedarnathý centres around a priceless pendant that a Maharaja generously bestows on Upadhyaya, a homoeopath, for curing him of asthma. But, when Upadhyaya renounces his worldly life to become a sanyasi and leaves for Kedarnath, he is hotly pursued by three different people. Can Feluda unravel the mystery before something disastrous occurs? The theatre becomes the scene of crime in ýThe Acharya Murder Caseý but Feluda is equal to the challenge. Lalmohan Babuýs joy at seeing one of his novels filmed is quickly replaced with fear as the set becomes a place of murder and theft in ýMurder in the Mountainsý, but even the most cunning of villains is no match for Feluda. Gripping drama and suspense combine with humour and memorable writing to form a splendid treat for Rayýs fans everywhere.

Synopsis Feluda @ 50 by : Boria Majumdar

A quintessential fan tribute and a celebration of Feluda on the occasion of the sleuth's fiftieth anniversary In 1965, Satyajit Ray, drawing from the detective tradition made popular by characters such as Sherlock Holmes and Hercule Poirot, created a character who would go on to influence Bengalis of an entire generation: Feluda. And when Soumitra Chatterjee played the dapper detective in the film Sonar Kella, a cult was born. Fifty years later, the cult endures. Every new Feluda film has the box office in a tizzy. Feluda@50 seeks to explore the phenomenon. What makes Feluda tick? What is it that we love about this man? Why is it that every Feluda film continues to run to packed houses for weeks and months on end in an otherwise struggling Bengali film industry? What is the way forward for the franchise in the years to come? What role do Feluda's sidekicks, Topshe and Lalmohan-babu, play? The book also delves deep into Ray's motivations for keeping Feluda cocooned from contemporary politics and never allowing him to have a love interest. Also including in-depth interviews with the three stars who have played Feluda onscreen, this is the quintessential fan tribute and a celebration of Feluda on the occasion of the sleuths fiftieth anniversary.
