The Astral Alibi
Sonia Samarth
is one of the more original sleuths around . . .[Prabhu's] stories are
true puzzles in the grand old tradition that reaches back to Poe and
Doyle." - The Denver Post
If you like your crime in a foreign clime,
join Sonia Samarth and her Stellar Investigations Detective Agency as she
confronts a rash of baffling misdeeds plaguing the city of
Pune, India-and solving them as only she can, with a unique combination of
traditional Indian wisdom, modern-day detection, and ancient astrology.
Complete with authentic horoscopes...
After a slow start to the New Year,
Sonia's crime-solving services are in high demand. There's the bride whose
arranged marriage may include murderous in-laws, the theatrical team
whose death scene was no act, and the deceptively happy couple whose stars
foretell domestic danger. Good thing Sonia has her opinionated assistant,
Jatin, to help-except that even he may
be caught up in the unlawful fray. Fortunately, it takes more than a few
misguided souls-not to mention a preposterous proposal from the world's
most notorious diamond thief-to rattle this
yoga-practicing, astrologically inspired sleuth.
