After finishing Murder Under a Red Moon book 2 in Haraini Nagendra's [iBangal;ore Detectives Club[/i] series, and enjoying it just as much as the first, I'm now nearly halfway through An Unholy Drought, book two of Madhulika Liddle's Delhi Quartet. An excellent example of historical fiction, telling the historical story of Delhi by means of a family saga spanning several centuries. The author's sister is a published historian whose specialty is Delhi, so the two bokos so far are rich in historical detail and provide context for some of the famous names and events of the times they cover.
