Nidhi Srivastava
is on page 199 of 420
I'm conflicted about this. I'm on page 199 and there is no core mystery yet, leave alone suspects or anything. The depiction of postpartum is a bit insensitive. And mostly it just reads like somebody wrote this about present day Bombay but changed the details to make it 1920s Bombay. Bit jarring. There is no way to verify the historical accuracy short of going through the same research that the author did.

Exactly .. I also liked the setting of Bombay then , Mumbai now being from there
I really enjoyed the first book in this series. The second I found irritating and not good. The third was somewhat better. This one, a friend said, is closer to the first...?
Yes . I liked 1.. The first one was really good ( parallel story lines ?) 2 was meh . 3 was nice . 4 is better than 3
