Secret of The Missing Tenant By @adityabanerjeeauthor Genre - crime thriller / Novel Rating - 4/5 Secret of The Missing Tenant by Aditya Bannerjee is another crime thriller that has again won my heart. It's a perfect blend of warm emotional touch with crime investigation and a portrayal of 80's Indian society. Nitya and Shankar Sen back together in this book, they solved the mystery together just like their last case Broken Dreams. Let me be honest, I liked it when they solved cases together, it's more enjoyable. It's a gripping crime investigation plot which is interesting with atmospheric narrative that takes you to the virtual tour of Rajasthan. The story followed Shankar Sen who accidentally got intrigued to the case of a missing library worker who was also a night watchman who also has gone missing. As he follows the trail, what seems like a missing person case spirals into something far more dangerous. Enter Nitya Chaturvedi, a sharp-tongued investigative journalist with a nose for trouble. When her investigation collides with Shankar’s case, the two find themselves tangled in shady cargos, botched raids, and seemingly unrelated murders. But the deeper they dig, the more resistance they face—from powerful bosses, corrupt insiders. With a dash of suspense this book is a slow burn cozy detective novel where police officer and an investigative journalist works hand in hand and feels same goosebumps while unveiling truth from the darkness. One by one they discovered clues and searched evidence that corroborate their thoughts, apparently which looks like unreasonable and unrelated incidents slowly came out as an important step towards the missing man. Going to various places making the investigation thrilling and atmospheric, from Delhi to Bombay then Uttrakhand and Rajasthan makes readers engaged in the book in the best way. Not only the inspection but author showed glimpses of the character's personal life, which is author Aditya Bannerjee 's signature style offers warmth and comfort, a much needed connection with readers builds effortlessly, and that's why I always wait for his next book. It's a perfect cozy mystery book for this coming Autumn
