Cromartie Vs.the God Shiva

`This book is a twin; more than that, a Siamese twin' to Coromandel Sea Change. Set as before in the Patna Hall Hotel, on India's Coromandel coast, the story is based on a real case some years back when the ownership of a small gold statue was in dispute and the God Shiva became the plaintiff and won. Rumer Godden uses her wonderful imagination and enduring love of India to create a story whose fabulous characters each have a key role in this extraordinary case.
