George Sansi mystery. These are gripping, excellent beachreads, I regret that I didnt find this writer sooner I totally enjoyed getting to know the main characters, lawyer and

former Bombay policeman George Sansi and his American lover, news reporter Annie Gennaro.
In an attempt to take down a rival politician of his old boss, the couple travel to the coast of Goa, where they uncover staggering corruption in the drug trade, centering around a hippie colony.
Sansi and Annie befriend locals and view events differently, which puts stress not only on the investigation but on their relationship, The characters, even the minor ones, are well drawn and compelling, as is the plot, The atrocities are almost unimaginable, the locations welldescribed, and the writing style easy to read and kept me turning pages, Highly recommended, and I will look for more treats from this writer, Mystery lovers will find a complex, fast paced puzzle in The Ganja Coast by Paul Mann, George Sansi has left the police department to practice law, but before he gets started his exboss needs him to go undercover one last time.
George heads to Goa with his girlfriend Anne, a western reporter, They are pretending to be a vacationing couple, helping to George to stay anonymous, He knows he will be in danger but figures Anne will be safe at their resort, He should have known better, soon Anne is right in the thick of things, Sorting out corruption in India is always a challenge, it becomes nigh on impossible in Goa, The children of the west still hang out on the beaches, aging hippies smoking ganja, All the beautiful beach front property could be put to better use than housing a bunch of low paying counter culture types from the west.
All that sand and ocean could turn a tidy profit for development, Meanwhile the murder rate is rising in Goa, corruption is running amok, something needs to be done and George Sansi is just the man for the task.
The murder of a young child raises the stakes, Sansi is getting into truly dark water, A sleepy community on the Indian coast, Goa is a paradise for the international hippie brigade, drawn by the golden beaches and endless supply of cheap dope.
Where there's drugs, of course, there's violence, but Goa is used to a certain manageable level of brutality, used to mellowing its impact in a haze of pot smoke.
Lately, though, the ugliness has gotten worse, Professionals have moved in on the drug trade, and even the sweetest smoke can't cover the stink of corruption that's pouring from the highest levels of local government.
George Sansi, the halfIndian/halfEnglish cop from Bombay who debuted in Season of the Monsoon, thinks he's seen about the worst the world can offer.
But when he gets a call to help clean up Goa, he finds himself unprepared for the grimly dark side of paradise, "Drug smuggling in India Goa headed off by George Sansi, " This was quite a nice 'not feeling great/on holiday' read although I did find it overly descriptive in parts, And some fairly large coincidences too, I think I said I'm a sucker for all things India but this was amazing!! I read this mostly because I wanted to revisit my visit to Goa a few years ago.
I enjoyed the descriptions of the local geography, and the story itself wasn't bad, either, I think the author worked hard to present an accurate picture of India, with parts of the story occurring in Bombay and the bulk in Goa.
If you like a good mystery and/or are interested in foreign places, you'll probably enjoy this, While I don't think I would want to visit India I do enjoy reading about it and this, the second book in the George Sansi series, mixes political corruption, drugs, and hippies looking for enlightenment into an entertaining page turner.
  The first book in this series Season of the Monsoon was also a very good read,
Held my attention to the exspected ending Look, I read this because I wanted to reconnect with the few months I spent in Goa thirty odd years ago.
Some aspects rang true, others not so much, I really cant say if my memories are distorted or this novel struggled to capture the true essence of Goa, Nonetheless the plot was pretty good, I just expected a little more, Librarian note:There is than one author in the GoodReads database with this namePaul Mann started out as an office boy at The Evening Chronicle in Newcastle Upon Tyne and from there worked his way up to being a reporter on newspapers and magazines, moving between the U.
