"The Picasso kill" by Suvash Dev - Angad Rane starts!
This book is published by Kalamos Literary Services LLP in 2021 and has 82 pages. This is Book 1 of 'Angad Rane’ series.
A small time actress is murdered in south Mumbai. Inspector Angad Rane is on the case. The killer calls himself Picasso and leaves a sketch of dying victim near the body. Another murder, another beautiful victim.
Who is Picasso? Why does he commit murders? Can Angad crack the case? At what cost?
It’s a murder mystery, but there’s hardly any mystery. Two murders happen quickly, readers know who the murderer is, police identify him easily. With less than 100 pages worth of reading material, there’s hardly any time for buildup. The story happens easily and quickly.
If so, is there anything worth mentioning? Yes, there is. It’s the end. The story ends with a shock for the readers. Even the police feel helpless and vulnerable when pitched with a kamikaze criminal.
Although the story ends, the series begins. A new criminal calls Angad at the very end of epilogue. That would be Book 2.
There are some spelling mistakes in the book. Better proof reading is called for.
Why did I read this book? Quick read.
What I didn't like? No mystery.
What did I like? The twist.
