What the critics say

As ever, Abir Mukherjee brings sardonic wit to his portrayal of British rule in India and the action is perfectly paced, but this volume has a depth that makes it stand out. His best yet (Jake Kerridge)
In his most accomplished and complex novel yet, Mukherjee keeps the reader enthralled as the duo race towards a brilliant conclusion. Death in the East is a contender for the best thriller of the year. (Jon Coates)
Death in the East is the best so far of an unmissable series (Antonia Senior)

Thoroughly enjoyed.

Really enjoyed India, early London and Sam and Suran’s relationship, and engaging mysteries. Hopefully there are books to come, great writer.
