BLURB- Dishonourably dismissed from the police force, Roy has been condemned to a life of obscurity. The twist in the tale comes with the murder of a well-known man in the Mumbai finance circle. Roy is hired by the self made tycoon Jayesh Kumar to probe the case. While Roy is excited at the chance at redemption, he fails to understand why he became the chosen one.
What looks at first an open and shut case, quite rapidly evolves into a tale of deceit and revenge. Roy must take care not to fall for the suspect, and not to see things as they appear. As his personal life gets tied to the success of the case, the question becomes, not whether he can have faith in strangers, but whether he can trust his friends.
Inspired from real life cases, The Monsoon Murders is a fast-paced detective novel, taking the Indian crime fiction genre to mysterious depths.

Language and Narration- Language of our book is lucid and with fast paced narration it goes well till the end. Book is well edited and grammatically perfect.
Characters- All the characters play their role perfectly as per the story. Though with extra description it could have been better but it does not affect the reading. I liked the way Mr. Parmanandka portrayed characters and i went from hating to loving them.
