Quick read. Not entirely a page-turner. Enjoyable. Can’t decide if I couldn’t wait to find out what happened or couldn’t wait to be done. Not as good as The White Tiger.

Clear connections to issues and the main character Balram from The White Tiger, which (it's also clear) is so much a better book!

A murder and a moral dilemma. Insight into life as an illegal immigrant. Yes. This is good.
