The best part of the book is it’s not gripping but interesting that as a reader I want to know what will happen in the next part. I loved Agni Mitra as a character. Even I loved the killer and the way author has described both the version makes it more interesting.
The flaws in the book is its predictable ending and I didn’t want the killer profile to be revealed so early. Apart from that I have no issues.
In The Shadows of Death – Case Solved!!!! ( go for it if you want murder thriller)
Ratings 4 out of 5
Although the protagonist is a Police Officer cut out from established noir cloth, the novel is not a police procedural. Instead it works superbly as a psychological thriller. While talking about motives and movements of various suspects, it slowly takes the reader along a dark path. As a result, we start asking ourselves some uncomfortable questions. At the end we try to answer those questions rather indulgently, but the doubt persists.
And the wait for next 'Agni Mitra mystery' begins right there!
Recommended.
The story is about a homicide secret, a person who kills women for a personal, wise, reasons. Detective Agni takes the case and with quite some difficulty to relate the murders and motives, resolves the puzzle and catches the murderer
The story does have a good start, carries along well however the flaws in the book is its predictable ending and while the connections between the murders are made by Detective Agni, the murdered is simply relieved with no much of thrill or brain game. Here the author has given away the whole of his good work all thru the book.
A pass time read but not to expect it to be a great thriller, I still rate is better as I liked the way the author carried the story for quite some time and I reduce the rating for being so predictable and not to the mark ending of the book.
I will pick up another book of the author, thou I am not going to have higher expectations for now.
But it has been executed in an interesting manner. The thing is it doesnt get boring to read. The writer however forgot to elaborate the reason or cause why the killer was killing everyone. Why he was into serial killing could have made it a better read.
Read it its not bad
This is one of the books which I have added to my favorites list already....The pace of the story is never faltering and kept up the interest quotient all throughout. The characterizations were all up there, at par with what we expect and experience in the best selling authors' works in the thriller/Detective genre. The Detective is all blood and flesh with no hypersensitive deduction skills and is rendered much more realistic. In particular I loved how the author delved into the human psyche and used it as the basis for the protagonist's theories. The usage of non-linear story-line in parts works hugely in favor of the book as well.
This is a riveting first novel of what is surely going to spawn a successful series for Agni Mitra's exploits!
I personally feel the psychopath murderer could have been given a more prominent role in the main story so that it could have a shocker for the reader.
It Sourabh's first book and I am sure Agni Mitra would face more gripping challenges in the journey ahead. I am looking forward to the next story.
Wishing you good luck.
