I love this book. I love anything that gives older women room to be full, sexual human beings. I loved that it was a romance novel and a mystery novel at the same time. I can't really assess whether the representation of violence against women within the Punjabi community was accurate or nuanced, but I felt like the author handled the topic in a way that was not just sensational or a plot device.
