I'm only half way through the book and it's already a slog. It's a book with a bunch of red herrings and little development. Being from Mumbai, I was hoping for some local colour, but it seems like he took a tour book and just name drops locations. Will try to finish the book, but right now I'm extremely disappointed.

It felt like one of those cliched hollywood flicks with its fair share of unnecessary technological marvels, over the top dialogues and out of place characters. Very disappointed.

Modest, hodgepodge starting converging to intensively exquisite thrilling murder mystery. But was expecting more sanghi's touch.
