An American visitor to India is killed on the road from Bombay to Poona.

A long-time fan of Inspector Ghote

Would you consider the audio edition of Inspector Ghote Caught in Meshes to be better than the print version?

I couldn't say. I never "read" books; I listen only.

Did the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How?

Not exactly, but I didn't feel like quitting either.

What about Sam Dastor’s performance did you like?

I love Sam's narration. I even searched for him and have listened to other Authors, that he narrates. He is a perfect example of how a Narrator brings a book to life. Sam's ability to switch smoothly between India accents and English, is excellent! It is the same with Lissette Lecat. Her narration of the "Number 1 Lady's Detective Agency" series, and her familiarity with the Botswana accent, is amazing. If you are not listening to Audio, you are missing out! :))

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

No... this is one of Keating's last, and, although still a very good book, it isn't his best.

Any additional comments?

I highly recommend all of the Ghote books, on Audio!!!!!

Another solid mystery

Inspector Ghote is a very likable protagonist. This is another solid murder mystery. If you have enjoyed the prior books you’ll enjoy this one.
