We Are All Shipwrecks, a memoir by Kelly Gray Carlisle. The hook is that her mother was murdered when the author was an infant, but instead so far it's mostly been about being raised by her eccentric grandfather. Excellent narration!
Midnight at Malabar House by Vaseem Khan. He's known for his Inspector Chopra series, which I've never read. This is the first book featuring India's first female inspector (fictional) in 1950. As with Simon Brett's "Fethering" series, it almost strikes me that the male writer is trying too hard at times with a female character (oozing sexism resentment). Narrator OK though perhaps a bit "plummy" to me.
