When they were on the town tour, a body of an English teacher Priyanka Sir was found in the paddy fields. Police suspected that someone has murdered Priyanka and whoever was close to him was under suspicion. Vino was one of them. Vino didn’t have any trust on police. So she decided to investigate the case herself with her friend Kiyama. Read the entire story yourself to unveil the suspense yourself.
The vocabulary given at the bottom of every page in a way we see citations in Wikipedia is amazing and nice idea. The plot of the story is intriguing and I couldn’t put the book down until I finished it. It gave me a feeling like I was watching a TV show Crime Patrol. Characters are well developed and I enjoyed reading this story.
