কিরীটী অমনিবাস ৩
This is the third part of the series "Kiriti Omnibus." In this part included are four novels.
1. Bishkumbha, 2. Mrityubaan (The arrow of death), 3. Ratri Jakhon Gavir Hoy (When midnight falls), and 4. Aloklata.
Mrityubaan is one of the best creation by the author. The story line is closely based on an old real life crime case famously known as, "Pakur Sharojontro Maamla." (The Pakur Murder Conspiracy). The third story "Ratri Jokhon Govir Hoy," is another nice creation based on a conspiracy surrounding a coal mine.

The third part of the series "Kiriti Omnibus" presents a collection of four novels. The second story, "Mrityubaan" I feel the best closely followed by the third, "Ratri Jakhan Govir Hoy."
The story line of "Mrityubaan" is closely based on an old real life case infamously known as "The Pakur Murder Conspiracy."
