    “Book Descriptions: An archaeological expedition is excavating in the heart of Bundelkhand, a place rich in history and legend. When an archaeologist defies a local legend, the fallout is swift and deadly.

    Like many others over the centuries, is this death too a manifestation of the legend? Or is there something more down-to-earth and sinister behind it?

    Is there more to the lovely lady who is a spitting image of a long-dead heroine of a tragic tale? What secrets lurk within the leafy confines of the haunted islet?

    When Harith Athreya, an investigator with vivid imagination, asks these questions, he begins to uncover a mystery where the past and present meld into each other.

    CrimeReads: "... a kind of locked-room puzzle mixed in with gothic notes from the beyond. Readers who crave the fair play puzzling of a traditional mystery mixed in with some armchair travel will be richly rewarded."

    Publishers Weekly:“Raman does a good job weaving in the mystery with a possibility of the supernatural . . . a multilayered reveal in the final pages proves satisfying as well. Armchair travelers and fans of traditional mysteries should take note.“

    Note: This book is to be published in the UK by Pushkin Vertigo under the title Grave Intentions
