This is a good whodunit. Mystery is well maintained. Clues are dispered everywhere in the story so cleverly that you might miss them or get mislead, but not enough I suppose, some of them do direct your attention towards the main culprit. However, the abundance of suspects helps distracting you. I have one complaint about SMP. He has a very wrong impression of Mumbai Hindi. Yes, this accent and way of speaking Hindi was existing in Hindi, but it was irrelevantly there in either criminal people, or Gujrathi/Marwadi community. Everyone does not speak like this. Specially not the Marathi community, of which most of the characters are from. Anyways, that's really a minor matter. The rest of the story is excellent. I wonder which English novel this one is adopted from. Definitely not the Perry Mason or Coll & Lam series, where from most of Sunil's stories are adopted from.
Nevertheless, this is most enjoyable novel, and I'll definitely re read this in future. This already is my third reading.

================This is an Audible audiobook review============

Audible needs to get a better narrator. Sameer Goswami has a great voice. But great voice with good timber are not the only requirements for a good narrator. A great narrator needs ability to modulate his voice, and most importanly he needs to be able to emote. Goswami does neither of those, Even when the story says the character said the sentence in some particular way, he does not do it. For example, when the script says the speaker shouted, he reads it as if saying with gritting teeth. He narrates in almost monotone. His focus to enunciate each word results in unnatural reading. For example, he pronounced 'Cold drink' as 'colduh dreenk', he also pronounce 'incriminated' as 'incremented', 'clerk' as 'kilark', 'companion' as 'campaignian' and many more. Often he reads in Arabi accent, for example when he reads, "wo bola". If you've listened to any of the Audible audiobooks, you'll spot the difference in his performance. I mean I'm not saying he has to be as great as Ray Porter, but he can be at least an average narrator who can emote and modulate. I also think that these audiobooks need better editor who can also do digital modulation, and more than that they need a good director. Audible, you are a great audiobook producer, but that's for english only, Do better in Indian languages as well.
Audible, please please convert all of the SMP's Sunil and Sudhir series novels, but use a better narrator.

Excellent mystery, needs better narrator
