Blood Stilettos is the second installment of Private Investigator Rashmi Purohit Mystery series. The book starts with a rape scene, a masseuse has been missing and she is kidnapped by a sadistic psychopath. One by one the other main characters get introduced- Vinay Sharma, an ex-cop who was on the chase of this serial killer and was just about to succeed but alas! he couldn't and eventually gave up his post, Rashmi Purohit who is a private detective. Will they succeed in catching this psychopath?
It was such a page turner and author managed to keep the mystery. The narration and story telling was really nice. It is thrilling and kept me engaged. With simple and engaging writing style, impeccable plot and strong and well written characters, this book met my expectations and even exceeded them at certain points. I will definitely recommend it to crime thriller lovers.

I picked up this book as I am a big fan of detective stories since childhood. It was such an enthralling experience to read an engrossing detective novel after such a long time.
The story revolves around the life of Rashmi Purohit, a private detective and owner of Pi Agency. Her father was a CBI officer once and wished her daughter to be the same, but it killed her that she couldn't fulfill his dream. Her parents got divorced many years ago and she lived alone with her father. Her life revolved around him, but he also died leaving her all alone with Pi Agency and her employees Diksha and Akshay. Though she had an uncle, she felt a void in her life. Afterall, she had noone by her side.
She gets a case of a missing girl from North-east. The case seems to be a simple case of kidnapping, but never does Rashmi know that it will turn out to be a dangerous case involving a psychopath who has an addiction of viewing girls getting sexually assaulted violently. She meets Sharma who is mentally unstable ex-cop of Delhi police claiming the case of lost girl to be connected to the 16 years old case of serial murder and sex trafficking. Will she believe him? Will she be able to solve this mystery?
I loved the writing style of the author. It kept me hooked from the beginning. I recommend it to all mystery lovers and can't wait to read the next book of this series.

Blood stilettos is the best thriller I have read recently. It is the second installment of a series centered on private investigator Rashmi Purohit, but it works as a standalone book.
Plot:
Rashmi purohit, get a case to find out the whereabouts of missing northeast girl Eli. She thought it just a simple missing case, but she doesn’t know she is going to face dirty truths related to this case.
Vinay Sharma ex-cop finds an unexpected gift at his doorstep, a pair of stilettos. This reminds him of a frightful case that happened 16 years ago related to the torturing and killing of young girls by a serial killer.
Is there any connection between these two cases?
Will she be able to find Eli?
My thoughts:
This is a well-developed novel, and its structure reveals the author’s excellent writing skills. The narration of the book is so engaging, and the way the author reveals the conspiracy makes the story more and more complicated until the end. Every character in this read is crafted very strongly and holds its individuality. The end of the story is very shocking and ends with a cliffhanger. This is not only a spine thrilling read but also enlightens the racism which northeastern residents face in their own country.
Overall, it is a gripping, exciting, and full of suspense novel that will keep you reading until the very last thrilling page.

Blood stilettos by @authorneelabh is the second book of Rashmi Purohit mystery series. It can be read individually as a standalone too.
The protagonist Rashmi is a private investigator who has accepted the disappearance case of Moi’s sister Eli Phom , a masseuse. At the same time, an ex police officer Vinay Sharma receives red stilettos from an anonymous person indicating the evidence that was the key to solving a psychopath mystery 16 years ago. This comes as a warning, meaning that the psychopath is still in loose. Are these two cases interlinked? When other similar girls start disappearing in a line,the tension increases. Grab the book to solve the crime alongside Rashmi.
The novel is well written & wonderfully executed . The flow of clues was flawless with equal space given to secondary characters. It was engaging till the last page. Recommending to mystery/crime thriller fans.

This book is one of the most awaited sequels, for the first book in the series has my heart. Being someone who lives for thrillers, especially Crime Thrillers, I absolutely love the style the author follows, revealing secrets one by one, taking us to the last page in no time.
The character Rashmi Purohit has all my heart, especially after the author said the character is inspired by a real life super woman. Strong female protagonist is a remarkably strengthening factor of the story. I loved the way every bit of the story reminded the Alphalion case. Memorable characters. Rich vocabulary. Perfect writing style.
The proceedings of the case piqued the interest. Mingling personal lives into it served the purpose and made this book highly interesting. The end was very shocking. Oh my god! Is he the murderer? Completely an unexpected backstory behind the twist. And the cliffhanger at the end... I'm waiting for the third book in the series!
Highly recommended.

Nail biting thriller
This is the second book of the Pi Agency series. Though both can be read as a stand alone, the second book ends in a cliffhanger and I'm eagerly waiting for the third book.
The story goes like, the family of a missing girl from North east comes to Pi Agency's prime detective Rashmi Purohit. Rashmi is determined to find the girl along with her team, Diksha and Akshay. Meanwhile, Sharma, an ex cop and her father's colleague comes up to her, claiming that her case is related to a case of serial killer which happened sixteen years ago. Will Rashmi be able to solve this series of puzzles or get herself into trouble?
The book consists of around 300 pages and 100 chapters. The chapters are small and helps to understand the important clues. At some point you may solve the case yourself but still the journey to the last page is worth it. The character building and plot twists are great. Language is simple but recommended to adults only. Trigger warnings include sadistic behavior psychological and sexual abuse and hate crimes. Irrespective of all this, an important point which was put forward by the author, was the problems and the racial discrimination that the residents of North east India face everyday in the Mainland regions.

Bloody good read! This is one author whose writing has greatly developed, and he's going places. Great narration, cliff hangers and red herrings galore, sharp observations and witty language, punny in places (check out gropes). This book has it all, but longer would be better.
Now I hope his next work exceeds fans' expectations.

It’s a Rashmi Purohit mystery. It’s the second part but don’t worry, you can directly pick this book. You won’t have feelings that you are missing out something as I directly went for this. I will only discuss few points in blurb as further discussion in suspense thriller genre will lead to spoilers. As the tagline suggests, Rashmi Purohit is a private investigator. Eli is a masseuse. On the 23rd October, she got missing. She gain consciousness and realised that someone probably kidnapped her. On 24th, police tried to investigate the case. Following that her sister Moi approached private investigator Rashmi. She didn’t noticed the foul play until a client of Eli committed suicide. And there is one suspect. Mentally conflicted ex cop killer is active almost after sixteen years. Is that anyhow relevant? Read the book to know further about the story. I liked the plot. It’s written in lucid yet catchy writing style. It’s filled with numerous twists and turns. The plot and sequences of events written day wise. So author is well thorough with story because it’s a tough job to do to write it that way. Because in suspense thriller, a slightest timeline mistake can go wrong. I indeed like narration style of the author. It’s like watching a nice thriller movie. I enjoyed reading it. Overall good one.

It doesn't take long for Rashmi and Vinay to jot the horror that happened 16 years back and now are the same.
To know what happened 16 years back? Was is a suicide or murder? Why Eli Phom goes missing? Read Blood Stilettos: A Dark Serial Killer Thriller, the second installment in Rashmi Purohit Mystery series.
Personal comment -
The book starts on an intriguing note. The books which have a twisted plot right from the first page are my favorite kind of read.
The book not just remains intriguing for first few pages but till the last sentence. A page turner that gives you goosebumps.
The storyline is extremely engaging. The characters were developed with extreme delicacy. There are more than six characters and each catch your attention. Each character has a different story to tell, the curiosity that revolves throughout the book makes it an extremely amazing read. The book is intense and the incidents are fast paced making it one of the best reads of 2021.

The author wrote about the problems faced by the Northeast girls in their own country, perfectly. I haven't read the first book of the series. Even though the story is not a continuation, I would suggest you to read the first book for the better understanding of the characters. The suspense element in the story is good. If you love crime thrillers, then you will definitely love this book.

The protagonist Rashmi Purohit is a private investigator who has accepted the disappearance case of Moi’s sister Eli Phom , who is a masseur
The second installment of the Rashmi Purohit Mystery Series by Author Neelabh Pratap Singh is a great written novel that talks about Beauty Spa that offers sexual pleasuring
services and erotic sexual torcher with the clients especially the ones from North-East .At around 3/4th of the book , there are big reveals which you can't take in
for a little span of time . The story begins with an ex-cop Vinay Sharma who is a colleague of the Protagonist's father . There are 3 to 4 cases about same sexual
torcher and assault which are interlinked as they are being taken place by the same person . There are deaths , Erotic Sexuality , Curses ,Abuses , A lot
of action and at last a Lot of Misunderstandings which are solved by the end of the case .
The whole book is filled with SEX, SEX and Only SEX and yes it should be because the book mainly focuses on Sexual Assaults Being done on girls by a
MOTHERFUCKER (as he is described in the book) for his pleasure and he even murdered some girls because he seemed to relax hearing cries of girls which made him
do that .
There are some , actually a lot of mysteries left in the book which i Expect will be solved in the third installment of the series .For Example : Who the hell was Sheena .
Don't worry , you will get to know about SHEENA when you will read the book . I can't stop myself from giving spoilers but i won't give any because i don't wanna ruin your reading experience . There were many parts where you will feel
disgusted for the sadist and pleased for the girl being assaulted and torchered . You can simply imagine what's hapenning in the story in your head so easily and at times
that becomes horrifying. There are several instances when Rashmi Purohit's Behaviour has changed for their Employees , for the ex-cop Vinay Sharma whom she thought as
rival from the beginning but solved the case with him only .
At Last , I would only say that the story had left me heartbroken and very curious to know what happens next . So before reading the novel , be ready for a big heartbreak

It is a disconnected, self-contained sequel in a series that is still trying to gather more readers, and it does an awesome job at doing so.
A review of BLOOD STILETTOS by Samarth Soni.
I've read only a handful of books in the crime-thriller genre, and this one is up there with the top three. Why? let me tell you.
Rashmi Purohit, the Private Investigator, is really intrigued by the prospect of this mysterious case and so she picks this up. Moi, a North-Eastern girl reaches out to her regarding her sister Eli's whereabouts. Eli, a masseuse, has mysteriously gone missing. Was Rashmi right to pick this up? Maybe a little too eager? The answers are for you to think, and this is why this book is up there with the best. Characters don't have to be perfect, y'all.
Some sixteen years ago, as has happened presently, a pair of stilettos was left on the doorstep of Vinay Sharma, an ex-cop who had to take voluntary retirement amidst speculations and accusations of having a mental disorder. A repetition? Is the old serial killer back? And will Rashmi be able to get to the end of it all, with the help of Vinay?
The writing style is something I really liked, fast when it needs to be, slow when you want it to be. A mix of both. I like seeing this, as if the author has anticipated the way the book is going to be read. Good job Neelabh sir. Yes, for a deeper understanding of the characters, you will need to read the first book in the series, as point a few references in the book, but since it's disconnected and not a continuation, you're well off without it. That doesn't mean you should skip the first book though. No!! No!!
"Sometimes we end up narrowing our vision down to our struggles so much that we become blind to others' struggles, forget that others are fighting their battles too". Pick this one up, eh!

The second book from the Rashmi Purohit series is one heck of a read for anyone who loves crime and thrillers. I want to admit; I judged the book by the cover and the name only to make me want to pick it up right off the shelves of Amazon. The second big case of the PI Agency who go around investigating a missing woman. The case was like finding a needle from a haystack.
Uniqueness: This book is not just another murder mystery or a crime story of some abduction. It's a story of a psychotic sadist serial killer and something you would see right out of a Hollywood movie. The suspense, intertwined characters, the sadist man you try to identify till the very end make this book a fantastic read.
Writing Style: Just like book 1, this one is such an easy read. What I loved about the book is how well the characters are defined. The emotions, the drama, and the struggle make them relatable. Not for a second can you take your eyes off reading the book as its all flows like a waterfall.
Cost worth: The book is available on Kindle Unlimited for free, and you can buy it on kindle for Rs. 99. There is nothing more you would want more than an astonishing thriller for free.
Entertaining: A complete package, this book has all the goods- missing people, suicide/murder, romance, jealousy, memories, history, mistakes from the past, crazy psychotic human, and much, much more.
Predictability: Not for a moment could I predict who the person was till the very end. The more you read, the more you think it could be someone else—what a twist to the tale towards the end.
Verdict: 10/10 This book should be under the bestsellers in all the book stores. The book was so enticing, and I couldn't put it down even for a minute. Looking forward to the next book, the hint of the storyline at the end was the icing on the cake.

This is the second book by the author and it falls under the crime thriller/mystery genre. This is the second instalment of private investigator Rashmi Purohit Mystery series by the author. This serial killer story revolves around a north eastern girl, who works at a massage parlour and goes missing. An ex-cop tries to get Rashmi involved in another case which he thinks is linked to this one. Are these two cases linked? Will Rashmi catch the person behind both cases?
I haven't read the first book by the author and I am sure it would be as good as this one. The writing of this book is nice and the narration is great. I liked the character of the headstrong women, Rashmi Purohit, who leaves no stone unturned to get to the culprit. The twists and turns in the plot keeps you hooked till the end and you can finish this book in a day. I loved the storyline, which touches crucial topics like racism and unacceptance faced by northeastern people in India and their day-to-day struggles to survive in their own country. However, even though this is not the continuation of the first book, I would suggest reading the first book before this one, as there were so many references given related to the first book, in almost every chapter. I was not able to get to the depth of the characters’ relationships as the book keeps pointing out to the incidents that happened in the first book. Nevertheless, this book is a treat for thriller lovers and I recommend this.

I don't know how should I write a short review of the book. I though before writing because there is too much which I want to say and discuss. First of all I love thriller novels, especially detectives and all. So, may be I am biased towards this genre but then everyone has their own choice.
I took my time to finish this book. Yeah this book is a bit lengthy but then also it has so much to gasp that I was taking a little time to think about everything after few chapters. I don't know how the author @authorneelabh put all those chaos in such beautiful manner that nothing seemed to messed up in weird or boring way.
I really appreciate the work of character building. Rashmi, Akshay, Diksha, Sharma everyone was superb. For me the real twist and interest takes places after page 170. I almost reached the conclusion from my point of view but then again one twist. Oh my god! after I couldn't put the book to read remaining portion for later.
If you are into thriller genre then definitely go for this book. I loved it from starting to ending. May be you find a slow start in starting but I think that was necessary. Anyway, you will not feel regret. But yeah it will not be an easy read. You will feel hatred, pain, anger after reading about those assaults giving to women. You will feel broken at some points.
This book is all about missinga girl Eli Phoem and hiring Rashmi Purohit as private investigator for the same case. But this all becomes complicated when Sharma started receiving red Stilettos. Sharma's past haunted him. And later a lot more is there to read.
One request to the author - "please come with the next part as soon as possible and also please make Akshay and Diksha together 😀."

Damn good thriller
Blood Stilettos is a crime thriller, written by neelab prathab singh. The story is about a private investigator Rashmi Purohit, in search of a missing north eastern girl and in the mean time came into contact with Vinay Sharma, an ex-cop trying to find a serial killer, in connection with the missing girl. The story portrays contemporary socio political problems along with an interesting and an thrilling story line..
**
The story is so gripping from the beginning itself.. First chapter starts with the rape of a north eastern girl and my heart was pounding with range... From there itself the entire book was a rollercoaster with emotions ..There were times when my mind was screaming at the characters like " Damn girl .. open your eyes.. you are not a fool.. " well.. let's say I forget it was a story sometimes..☺️☺️ Chapters are narrated by each characters. So it felt like I was taking a tour through the minds of each characters, even with the mindset of the killer himself..Throughout the book i was on my toes and at the climax author left a part hanging for the sequel 【To the author : Write the damn next part soon enough.. I'm dying here .. * with all due respect sir ☺️】
Not only this book is a good crime thriller, it also touches the racism prevailing in india about the Northeastern residents .We all advocate racism against black people..But we were also being racists calling a north eastern person "chinawala" like names even unintentionally..
It is a excellent crime thriller and I would recommend it to anyone without a doubt .

Author Neelabh Pratap Singh again cracks down to solve a mystery through the eyes and brain of Rashmi Purohit, a “Private Investigator” from PI Agency.
This time Eli Phom a nineteen year old girl from Nagaland( North East India) who was living with her sister and some other friends at Gurugram seems to disappear all of a sudden. She was working in a massage parlour named Magic Touch Spa, in a shopping mall situated on MG Road which was not in good books though.
Eli’s sister approached Rashmi rather than going to local police to help her find her missing sister because according to her the local police do not give them much importance and consider them an outsider. People call them Chinese-Japanese, chinky, ching-chong. and they think of them as ‘easy’ or sasta maal.”
At the same time Sharma a retired police officer tore off a courier packing and opened the lid, his heartbeat accelerated. Again he expressed his frustration “Red stilettos, same brand, same size. The monster was yet again to strike after 16years.
Are the two stories connected?
Will Rashmi be able to save Eli?
What is the importance of the Red Stilettos?
I must say that this was an amazing read with such a great plot which kept me hooked and I kept guessing the culprit. It was an easy and interesting read, the writing was so smooth and precise, the plot kept me engaged, with no un-necessary stuffs.
I am also excited to Sneak-a-peek at the next Rashmi Purohit mystery- “DEAD SURVIVOR”

Great One
Mysteries or Thriller books are my favourite genre and I usually finish the book in one siting. That's how much I love them. So when I came across this book, I immediately knew I had to read it as the cover itself screams murder mystery to me. Wonderful job on the cover.
The book starts with a very raw and intense chapter 1 of Eli Phom getting tortured and as soon as I read that fist chapter I knew it's an intense book. The story goes on about an ex cop who has been out of the police force as he has been termed bipolar and schizophrenic. However, he knows what happened 16 years ago for his bad mental state and unfortunately history is going to be repeated again as Eli Phom sister lodges a formal complaint and Ex cop Vinay Sharma get a pair of red Stilletoes delivered on his doorstep as it was done 16 years ago.
The story is very gripping and it's very fast paced too. This is the second book in the series, However it's also a book in itself. But one will definitely want to read the series now as this book is an amazing read.
The characters are described very well and also relationships are given an importance in the book. I found this particularly interesting betrayal is definitely a part of the book.
Language is simple and easy too
Highly Recommended to all

I was so excited when I heard this book came out of nowhere. If you didn’t know, this is the sequel of Pi Agency–1, which came out last year. It was one of the best books I read last year. So, naturally, I was so excited to read its sequel and find out what happens with Rashmi and her sidekicks.
To give you a little background on the story, the series follows Rashmi Purohit, a private detective who runs a sleuth agency called PI agency. Her only employees are Akshay and Diksha. Having successfully solved a major case in the last book, she has gained a lot of reputation.
This book tells us how the trio, stumbled on a big serial killer while investigating what initially seemed to be a regular missing person’s case. How she tackles this case is what all this book is about.
To be frank, I predicted who the big bad was pretty early on while reading the book, unlike the first book where it was hard to predict the culprit. The author made a slight mistake of revealing a bit too much info pretty early in the book. Nonetheless, it was still a great mystery thriller. And the cliffhanger, in the end, was just like the cherry on top of an already perfect cake.
I can’t wait to read the third book in this series.

'Blood stilettos' brings the second big case of Pi agency, a private detective agency run by Rashmi Purohit. When Eli Phom goes missing, Rashmi Purohit is approached by her sister to find her. What starts as a simple case gets complicated when Vinay Sharma, ex-police officer, connects the case to another unsolved case from sixteen years ago.
.
I picked up this book because I really enjoyed the first book of the series, and I wasn't disappointed with this one too. To start with, the book cover is unique and outstanding. At the beginning, a lot of links can be found with the first book which I really enjoyed to read. As the case moves, we can see how much Rashmi has grown as a person and as a detective after the first case. The Blood Stilettos case is fast-paced, thrilling and very mysterious. Even though it took a few hours to complete the book, the mysterious feeling of the story made me finish the book in one sitting. The author has written the story very well, keeping the best parts as a suspense till the end. Even though this is a part of a series, anyone can enjoy this without reading the first part. I absolutely recommend this to those who live reading mysteries, and especially to those who liked the first book of this series.

MY RATING – 4/5 STARS

This book is full of twist and turns as Rashmi faced a dead end when prime suspect in Eli Phom’s case commits sucide and when after meeting the ex- cop Vinay sharma, all the strings starts to attach and form a full proof case. Will Rashmi be able to find Eli?

The supporting characters like of Diksha, Chandan or Akshay also fit well and giving a more engrossing feel. Also the suspense and the crime element has been also penned down fantastically giving reader the feel of watching any thriller movie.

Rashmi Purohit is a private detective and managing her Pi agency. A case of a missing girl Eli Phom comes to her and Rashmi and her colleagues start investigating. Day by day they start peeling and every day they found something shocking and heartbreaking. I'm not going to further describe the story coz Detective stories are my favorite and I don't wanna spoil the thriller.
It is a mystery book, from the first page the shock starts and it grows on. The book is a foggy ride that continuously accelerates and till the end, your thoughts were running in different directions and you start thinking about what's going to happen next. But the story has something that your mind did not reach there.
The storyline is amazing and engaging, the writing style is straightforward and easy to read. The book contains six major characters and the design of each character is really good.

RASHMI PUROHIT MYSTERY
I've read only few books in crime thriller genre, and now this one is up there in top five.
It's well written and author continue the thrill with same intensity from first page to last page. ʙʟᴏᴏᴅ sᴛɪʟᴇᴛᴛᴏs is not just a murder mystery or crime story. It's a story of a completely abled psychotic serial killer like that we would see in a movie.
The story is about a missing north eastern girl and introduces Rashmi Purohit as a private investigator. At the same time, an ex police officer Vinay Sharma receives red stilettos from an anonymous person indicating the evidence that was the key to solving a psychopath mystery 16 years ago. Are the two cases interlinked or is this an introduction of a new case?? When other girls start missing similarly, the tension increases. Grab the book to solve the case with Rashmi and Vinay.
The characters Rashmi, Akshay, Diksha was superb.There were a lot of twists in this book. We can't interpret the conclusion by first. The character is hided to a suspense till the end.
If you love thriller genres, there's no need to have a second thought, just go for this book. That's all

Wow! This story surprise me.
It is the second installment of Private Investigator Rashmi Purohit Mystery series.
Rashmi Purohit gets a case to find out the whereabouts of a missing Northeast girl, Eli Phom. When she was thinking it to be a simple case of kidnapping, Vinay Sharma, an ex-cop of Delhi Police came to meet her. He informed her that it's not just an ordinary kidnapping case, it's related to his cold case, 16 years ago.
The story is fast paced, told from different POVs, through short chapters. The writing style is easy and straightforward.
I liked the plot. The characters were okay. I liked how author depicts the emotional turmoil of the main characters that make them more real. Though the first half mostly consists of family drama, the second becomes more exciting and thrilling and full of twists and turnings. And that cliffhanger in the end.. Ugh!!!!
Overall it was a good read, I thoroughly enjoyed it and like to recommend it to all crime thriller lovers.
