Has any one here read books by S. K Pottekad who wrote couple of great travelogues. I need some good travelogues in similar style. Suggest if you know anything similar.

Reacher might be belonging to the thriller category but those books feature some excellent detective work. Specially the deductions are very very interesting.

That is true. But i am looking more at Sherlock Holmes / Hercule Poirot kind of characters.

^Nothing is Blue by Biman Nath

oh its a Zaidi book. haven't read that one. It is not fiction at all, he just writes it like a story. Mafia Queens of Mumbai and Black Friday.

Well , Zaidi himself describes that the novel is purely non fictional based on police records, court's documents and after questioning Abu Salem himself.

And do you know other these-types of novels ...

P.S - Today I may get 'Those Pricy Thakur Girls' ordered via Amazon during Freedom Sale :razz:
