One Arranged Murder - book review

 
One Arranged Murder
by Chetan Bhagat
Genre: Mystery/Crime


Saurabh and Prerna are engaged to be married. Both families are happy. Everything seems to be ending in a "happily ever after" but suddenly Prerna Malholtra falls from the terrace and dies. Saurabh and his childhood friend Keshav are cyber security experts and run a detective agency on the side. They are unable to accept Prerna was dizzy and her death was an accident. The more they dig into the Malhotra clan, the secrets they uncover makes them determined that Prerna's death was no accident but a murder. But who is the killer and what is the motive?

Read the book to find out. The writing is fast paced in the beginning and the author kind of slows down to a trot and then picks up pace in the end. Too many points of view. The one arranged murder seems too messy like an arranged marriage - too many characters, too many flashbacks, too many back stories.


If you have time to while away like I did waiting for Cyclone Nivar to pass, this would be a good read. Otherwise, it is not worth it.
