Murder on the Sacred River: A Review

 


I must say this beautiful cover lured me in, but the story kept me turning the pages. 

I did not realize that this book was part of a series (book 20) and at first I worried I would struggle with the characters, but I was proved wrong. I fell right in with Lady Emily and her investigation of a murdered Englishman, found on the banks of the Namarada River. The setting is India in the early 1900s during the Raj. The book is a dual-time story that centers on a Maharajah, Ahilyabai, who ruled her kingdom after the death of her husband. I enjoyed both time periods immensely and the murder mystery kept me guessing. I loved the setting, and the descriptions of the Maharajah's palace, the town, and life during the period. I will definitely have to explore the other books in the series. 

I would recommend this book to lovers of historical fiction and historical murder mysteries. 

This book is currently available on Netgalley. It will publish in September 2026. Here is a link to preorder:  MURDER ON THE SACRED RIVER
