À propos de cet audio
A ritual murder at a Mumbai temple exposes the city’s dark secrets and ravages the personal life of a detective in this sequel to The Blue Bar.
Amid incessant rains pounding down on Mumbai, Senior Inspector Arnav Singh Rajput is called to a shocking crime scene. A male body is found dismembered on the steps of a Kaali temple. Drawn into his flesh are symbols of a tantra cult. The desecration of a body at a Hindu place of worship puts the city on edge and divides Arnav’s priorities: stopping a fanatic from killing again and caring for his wife who’s struggling through a challenging pregnancy.
Then video footage of the murder is uploaded onto the account of a Bollywood social media influencer, triggering twists in the investigation Arnav didn’t see coming. Caste systems at war. A priest under suspicion. And an anonymous threat that puts his wife’s welfare at risk. When more bodies are found, the savagery of the city begins to surface—and Arnav fears that no one is safe from a bigger storm brewing.

“Sneha Mathan is the perfect narrator for this exciting police procedural set in Mumbai. She uses her strong characterization skills to bring a wide cast to life.… The story is told from multiple viewpoints, which Mathan handles with ease, especially the protagonist's. She carefully voices the anonymous character's point of view with skill, not revealing an important plot point until the end. Mathan's skilled timing helps convey the investigator's growing frustration and builds the plot's tension. The mystery, which takes place during a monsoon, results in an exciting and surprising listen.”—AudioFile Magazine
“With a complex plot and unusual structure…Biswas’ second Blue Mumbai thriller captures both the diversity and tumult of its unique setting. A compelling procedural awash in crosscurrents.”—Kirkus Reviews
“Mumbai during monsoon season provides a fine backdrop to this well-written thriller.”—Mystery & Suspense Magazine
