⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐/5 "Right? What justice? I was born because this godforsaken country and my godforsaken family don't know the meaning of that word. Evil men get away with evil deeds. Like they are daily rituals, routine acts hurting the vulnerable. " THE JASMINE MURDERS: An Uma-Jayan Mystery by Roopa Unnikrishnan is an engrossing thriller which keeps the readers hooked till the end. The story revolves around Uma, who moves to Manamadurai, with her husband Jayan, a police chief. She feels something is off. As suspected, a man arrives at Uma and Jayan's doorstep, holding a severed head of a woman. Here, begins a brilliantly thrilling read with fear and suspicion. The story is set in the 1960s in Tamilnadu. The story is intriguing with a medium-paced plot. The author's flawless narrative makes everything vivid. The writing style is unique and engaging. The author brilliantly portrays the social dynamics, exploring social hierarchies. While reading this book, I felt like I was solving a mystery alongside Uma and Jayan. Even though it is a mystery read, there are no sudden shocking twists, rather information is spread through local gossip and conversations. I loved Uma's character. It is a dark and layered reading which keeps us glued to the page. This is a deep read which is more than a mystery. It explores the themes of silence, regional contrast and emotional neglect. Overall, I loved this book and would strongly recommend it to all. #booklover
