Review: Killer Moves

Killer Moves by Varsha Dixit
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Killer Moves is a mystery novel with some subtle & mild supernatural elements in the story. I found the story and build up to be pretty good, keeping the suspense well into the story.

Aisha Khatri is a person who has made many personal sacrifices in life to ensure that her niece Kiara has a good life. Kiara’s parents die tragically when she is still young. Kiara is an upcoming model, and has just taken up an assignment with the famous Kabir Rana. Kabir Rana has faced tragedy in the past which continues to haunt him. He finds himself drawn to Aisha, who is wary.

There is a serial killer on the loose, targeting women and killing them cruelly. The CBI gets involved in the cases, along with the Goa police, but it is not an easy chase.

The story shuffles between Mumbai, Goa and Sirsa. The story is very fast paced and engrossing. The writing could have used some more sophistication and nuance in the characterisation.

This is a book I recommend reading for its story and ability to keep you going till you finish it.
