    Some Promise; But No Substance
  

*by V***G on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 9 August 2020*

I read with a a growing sense of disappointment. Reviews had hailed what I’m afraid I came to see as an increasingly boring piece of work.The author writes well enough, for at least most of the time. (But she does have to learn how to spell the surname of the author of “The Little Mermaid”.) That said, a moderately talented pen is overworked to deal with a tale of grotesques. “Ooty” had its place in tales of the Raj. This pale substitute will soon be ( deservedly) forgotten. Nothing about this hyperventiating tale is believeable - not the characters; not their behaviour (17 weeks being driven around the same half-dozen sights?); not the motivation (if any).The author would do well to try to hone her craft on short stories before attempting another novel. This time round, I fear that her ambition runs too far ahead of her talent.

    A Good Holiday Read
  

*by K***L on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 14 August 2020*

I read the review in the Sunday Times and as a frequent visitor to India who has been to Ooty on several occasions I bought it. The description of the town itself and the blue train are excellent. I did however have a little difficulty following the narrative which moves between time zones and places  a little too frequently for an old brain such as mine (81 years) to follow, but still an enjoyable read.

    Great description of place
  

*by E***K on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 10 March 2021*

I enjoyed this book but will now be happy to move onto something with more 'bite'. Set in Ooty, the situational awareness of the town is strong and enjoyable including the railway up to it.The main characters do not do much but introspect leading to misunderstandings and falsely perceived obligations.The minor characters are where the action lies, between Jamshed and his nephew who needs a horse to complete his persona as a wannabee country and western singer. The young, disabled girl around whom they gather eventually goes off with... Read it.
