About this listen

Some sinister secret lay buried in the heart of the graveyard.

Partho is an interesting friend to have. His quirky personality and cache of newfangled gadgets make him a force to be reckoned in the crime-solving world. A seemingly innocuous newspaper ad is the impetus for what will be his most unusual case to date. A friend is an unwitting participant in a brutal murder rife with international implications. A renowned UAE-based archaeologist with close ties to the crime has mysteriously fallen into a coma, leaving droves of puzzling clues behind, including a living will that will alter the lives of all involved and hordes of innocent bystanders.

The clock is ticking. Partho and his team have 10 days to solve the nightmarish crime and unravel the tangled web of deceit as a notorious underworld gang works to stop them. Will Partho's unconventional methods help or hinder the case?

Find out in this adrenaline-pumping suspense thriller!

A simple advert in the local paper requesting the return of luggage accidentally mixed up at the airport 5 days before grows from a curiosity to murder mystery with a time limit or someone else will die. The Dev and Partho partnership is similar to that of an Indian Watson and Holmes, both strong and interesting characters, the story being told by Dev. The mystery itself is also worthy of a Sherlock tale, being convoluted and intriguing. It was also quite amusing, and rates four stars.
Unfortunately, this reader personally found the audio hard to enjoy. The narratkr, Joseph G.Deak, had a pleasant voice which he uses well in the telling of the story. But there are various protagonists, each individually voiced, with crazy accents which were both disconcerting and not as easy to understand. Additiona?ly, his extended drawl was too drawn out and slow, possible suitable for Dev but irksome to hear for any length of time. Speaking up the playback speed to 1.25 did help. The intermittent sound effects were fun, though, with creeping doors, ringing bells and knocking, or even music adding a further layer to the listening experience.

My thanks to the rights holder of Partho, who, at my request freely gifted me with a complimentary copy via Audiobook Boom. It was a fun book in characters and mystery story; but despite the good attempts of the narrator, it's probably one best read in print form.
