Historia
A landslide has closed the Korowai Pass on New Zealand’s South Island, cutting off the town of Thorndike and leaving a sizable farm abandoned. The disaster presents an opportunity for Birnam Wood, an undeclared, unregulated, sometimes-criminal, sometimes-philanthropic guerrilla gardening collective that plants crops wherever no one will notice. For years, the group has struggled to break even. To occupy the farm at Thorndike would mean a shot at solvency at last. But the enigmatic American billionaire Robert Lemoine also has an interest in the place.

Resumen del Editor
A gripping, evocative thriller about a disgraced Sikh Indian Army captain who works as the caretaker for a U.S. Senator’s Martha's Vineyard estate, and becomes ensnared in the Senator's shadowy world.
Ranjit Singh, a former Indian Army Captain trying to escape a shameful past, now lives on Martha’s Vineyard, and works as a caretaker for the vacation homes of the rich and powerful. One harsh winter, Ranjit needs a place to stay, and illegally moves his family into an empty, luxurious vacation home belonging to an African American Senator. Ensconced in the house, he tries to forget his brief affair with Anna, the Senator’s wife, and focuses on providing for his family. But one night, their idyll is shattered when mysterious armed men break into the house, searching for an antique porcelain doll. Forced to flee, Ranjit is hunted by unknown forces, and becomes drawn into the Senator’s shadowy world. To save his family and solve the mystery of the doll, he must join forces with Anna, who has her own dark secrets. As he battles to save his family, Ranjit’s painful past resurfaces, and he must finally confront the hidden event that destroyed his Army career - and forced him to leave India.
Tightly plotted, action-packed, smart, and surprisingly moving, A. X. Ahmad's The Caretaker takes us from the desperate world of migrant workers to the elite African American community of Martha’s Vineyard, and a secret high-altitude war between India and Pakistan.

Scott Crane abandoned his career as a professional poker player 20 years ago and hasn’t returned to Las Vegas, or held a hand of cards, in 10 years. But troubling nightmares about a strange poker game he once attended on a houseboat on Lake Mead are drawing him back to the magical city. For the mythic game he believed he won did not end that night in 1969—and the price of his winnings was his soul. Now, a pot far more strange and perilous than he ever could imagine depends on the turning of a card.

Ordinary men, women, and children are the targets of entities that seem to spring from the depths of the collective unconscious, pop-cultural avatars some call demons. As a boy, Del Pierce is possessed by the Hellion, an entity whose mischief-making can be deadly. With the help of Del's family and a caring psychiatrist, the demon is exorcised... or is it?

Our most imaginative literary minds have been devoured by these incredible creatures and produced exciting, insightful, and unflinching new works of zombie fiction.

Historia
Few authors write with such sheer love of story and language as T. C. Boyle, and that is nowhere more evident than in his inventive, wickedly funny, and always entertaining short stories. Here are 14 new tales previously unpublished in book form. By turns mythic and realistic, farcical and tragic, ironic and moving, Boyle's stories have mapped a wide range of human emotions. The stories here reflect his maturing themes.

Historia
The only sign of life for miles is an empty BMW. Inside the expensive car he finds clothes that fit perfectly, shoes for his tattered feet, a Rolex, and an auto registration in the name of Daniel Hayes, resident of Malibu, California. None of it is familiar. How did he get here? Who is he? Who was he? While he searches for answers, the world searches for him - beginning with the cops that kick in the door of his dingy motel with guns drawn. Lost and alone, the man who might be Daniel Hayes flees into the night. All he remembers is a woman’s face, so he sets off for the only place he might find her.

OK, just OK
There are spots where the writing is really good, and others where it reads like a new writer. The narrator does the Indian accents very well, but all the Americans sound as though he is trying to give them a Southern accent mixed with a Bostonian accent, really pretty bad.
I did not care for the ending. It felt like a "lead in" for the next book. If a writer is good, they don't need to do this, each book can stand on it's own.

A new hero
I loved the details of Boston and the story. Hopefully in the next book the hero gets reunited with his daughter .

Great book, excellently read!
Meaningful on many levels -- politically, socially, psychologically, ethically, regarding government and military matters, and warm (and not so warm) family and love relationships -- being well researched with an intelligent plot development and fascinating characters, and containing twists, turns and exciting buildups of suspense throughout, this is a great book, excellently read! I am looking forward to reading the next book in this series, "The Last Taxi Ride."

Again whith the unnecessary language and sex
Would you try another book from A. X. Ahmad and/or Sam Dastor?
Sam Dastor is an EXCELLENT narrator!!! His "India" accent in Keating's Inspector Gothe series made me look for other books which he narrates. While he hold true to his abilities, this book itself lacks the ability to hold my interest. Predictable situations where the Handyman is alone with the rich housewife... confrontational exchanges with the local bigiots and bad-boys... and a slow start, with little action, made me put it down and go on to something else.

Weak and disappointing
Would you try another book from A. X. Ahmad and/or Sam Dastor?
No
Has The Caretaker turned you off from other books in this genre?
No
How could the performance have been better?
The reader is an East Indian gentleman. His "voices" were difficult to distinguish amongst characters.
What character would you cut from The Caretaker?
The so-called hero was a disappointing man, unfaithful to his wife for no good reason - yet we were meant to sympathize with this relationship. The two main criminal characters were not dealt with adequately in the wrap up. Aspects of characters - painstakingly described, such as the 7 year old daughter wanting to be a lawyer were not tied up at the end. If this is the first of a series, the author suspended his characters and story at a poorly chosen point in time and plot. Altogether, weak and disappointing.

Disappointing in every way
Sadly, Sam Dastor, whose superlative reading of the Vish Puri series by Tarquin Hall, is one of my all time favorite listens, was not nearly as good here. In fact, it was because Mr. Dastor was the reader that I decided to try listening to this new author. The Vish Puri series uses only Indian voices and Mr. Dastor excels at that. But the Boston accents and the female voices left much to be desired in this book, and the awkward pronunciation simply distracted from the story. The story itself starts out well enough, but by the middle had started to go downhill. The plot becomes unbelievable, the characters unattractive, and some of the intimate scenes add nothing but a sense of discomfort. I think there may be a sequel but I will be listening to that.
