My Critique:
The book is nicely written and to the point. The story has a flow that keeps
you with itself. The book is written in multiple chapters and every chapter is
appropriately lengthy. The
characterization is strong and vital to the movement of the tale. All the
characters are down-to earth and they are realistic. The story
undergoes several twists and turns and at one point when you almost conclude
whom to suspect, you are in for a surprise when Bhrighu Mahesh puts it the
other way and eliminates the person as the suspect. “Bhrighu Mahesh, PhD “
The witch of Senduwar is a crime fiction written in the most fluent
fashion of genius like Sherlock Homes, the fictional private detective ,
aided by the technique of observation. This logically marvelous
book is woven with a beautiful social mysterious drama in a
literary style.

The
narration is carried out in a very effective manner and the plot is very good.
Finally not only does Bhrighu Mahesh solves the mystery and turns the garden of
witch Jiyashree’s into a place that no one will ever fear to step into.
