A client claiming she was murdered in a past life is a novel dilemma even for Vish Puri, India's most private investigator.

When a young woman comes forward saying she's the reincarnation of Riya Kaur, a wife and mother who vanished during the bloody 1984 anti-Sikh riots, Puri is dismissive. He's busy enough dealing with an irate matrimonial client whose daughter is complaining about her groom's thunderous snoring. Puri's indomitable Mummy-ji however is adamant the client is genuine. How else could she so accurately describe under hypnosis Riya Kaur's life and final hours?

Driven by a sense of duty—the original case was his late father's—Puri manages to acquire the police file only to find that someone powerful has orchestrated a cover-up. Forced into an alliance with his mother that tests his beliefs and high blood pressure as never before, it's only by delving into the past with the help of his reincarnated client that Puri can hope to unlock the truth.

      Narrator Sam Dastor transports listeners to bustling modern-day New Delhi with his authentic-sounding accent and intonation. Vish Puri, India's Most Private Investigator, is called upon to uncover the truth behind his client's assertion that she was murdered in the past. As he looks into the matter, Vish is joined by a cast of larger-than-life characters, including his mother, who becomes his partner on the case. Dastor creates easily distinguishable personalities. In particular, he brings Mummy-ji to life with aplomb, conjuring the image of a well-meaning but annoying maternal figure. This story is a rich mix of comedy and mayhem--with a liberal helping of insight into the culture, politics, and history of India. K.J.P. © AudioFile 2020, Portland, Maine
