A Matrimonial Murder

Book Review: A Matrimonial Murder by Meeti Shroff-Shah

Rating: 3 stars

In A Matrimonial Murder by Meeti Shroff-Shah, readers are taken on a journey into the intriguing world of Temple Hill's top matchmaker, where the discovery of a body next to a statue of the god of dance sets off a chain of events that Radhi must solve. The question arises: was the assistant the intended victim, or was it her boss, Sarla?

The author, Meeti Shroff-Shah, crafts a vivid and descriptive setting in Temple Hill, bringing the location to life with incredible detail. The side characters are strong and add depth to the story, enriching the narrative with their own secrets and motives.

However, while the setting and characters shine, the mystery itself falls a bit flat. The plotline left me wanting more depth and complexity in the solving of the crime. Additionally, the pacing of the story is slow, which might deter readers seeking a more fast-paced read.

In conclusion, A Matrimonial Murder offers a captivating backdrop and interesting characters, but the mystery aspect may not fully deliver for some readers. If you enjoy a leisurely unraveling of secrets in a richly described setting, this book may be the perfect match for you.
