“The description of Calcutta makes it a character of the book. It is well paced with descriptions of the environment adding to the suspense. It does take some time to get to where the story is going. I don't think it is shocking to where things go.
I think this is his 1st novel which was pretty good.
Not sure I'd read it again because I think he has written better ones.”
