Combination of Wodehouse, Agatha Christie and someone

[Prashant]

Read the review on this book around year and half back (In "The Hindu" - Magazine).

The books is humorous and written in a combined style of P. G. Wodehouse, Agatha Christie and (I guess ... but not sure) R. K. Narayan.

Read this review in "The Hindu" - Magazine but then did not purchase this book - I regret so much.

I took a peek through the archives of this magazine and found some possible candidates:

You might find more by searching the archives, either online or the print copies. I hope you find it. :)

Prashant, are you still looking for this or did you find it?

I might add that locked-room mystery writer John Dickson Carr (AKA Carter Dickson) was frequently compared to P.G. Wodehouse. Many people thought that Wodehouse was actually writing the Sir Henry Merrivale mysteries under a pen name.
