Another Great Story

I am a big fan of the series and this one did not disappoint. As the series continues forward, the scale of the stories is also growing. A good mix of Indian culture into the storytelling will inform the listener of the intricacies that have to be considered as well as how various generations are dealing with evolution.

Another Great Story

This was another great addition to the Baby Ganesh Agency series. I am still loving Chopra and his dogged investigations in the face many obstacles. Poppy had her own side investigation in this book and it is a bit silly but also has echoes of Chopra and Poppy's problems they are dealing with in this book. The mystery is a good one and one that has no shortage of suspects I was unsure who did it until almost the end. All in all a good book and I will definitely be continuing on.

Book is great! Narrator is not!

The narrator dragged the story down with his lugubrious delivery. It became difficult to finish the book. He sounds too old (and I’m over 70).

Good story and excellent performance

The story is enjoyable, but the performer’s voices and dramatics were simply outstanding! He made a good story great.

Best book this year

I have read several of Vaseem Khan's Baby Ganesh novels and enjoyed them all, but listening to this story, I appreciate even more his beautiful use of words. The narrator was also highly skilled. I may go back and listen to the other novels I have read, as it was such a delight to hear this story performed.
