Rate this book
A dead body is found floating in the river Kshipra. A beautiful upper-caste woman chooses love over society, and is never seen again. A young widow is forcibly abducted to be sacrificed as a Sati, but disappears before she sits on the pyre. Three heinous crimes in one night is a rare occurrence in an otherwise thriving and peaceful Ujjain, the second capital of King Vikramaditya, under the Gupta Empire. Are these three different crimes or pages torn out of the same story? Find out in this short murder mystery set in fifth-century India.

It's quite interesting to read a story set in such a radically different culture than I exist in. The glossary of terms was helpful.
