If you like your crime in a foreign clime, join Sonia Samarth and her Stellar Investigations Detective Agency as they confront a rash of baffling misdeeds plaguing the city of Pune, India - and solve them as only they can, with a unique combination of traditional Indian wisdom, modern-day detection, and ancient astrology.

The Astral Alibi

After a slow start to the New Year, Sonia Samarth's crime-solving services are in high demand. There's the bride whose arranged marriage may include murderous in-laws, the theatrical team whose death scene was no act, and the deceptively happy couple whose stars foretell domestic danger. Good thing Sonia has her opinionated assistant, Jatin, to help - except that even he may be caught up in the unlawful fray. Fortunately, it takes more than a few misguided souls - not to mention a preposterous proposal from the world's most notorious diamond thief - to rattle this yoga-practicing, astrologically inspired sleuth.
