This is a book I had wanted for ages and added to my too-long pile of books to read.
Before I added it to the shelf, I took a look at the first page to gauge the writing style, you know how it is. I knew then that I was about to be hooked.
I ploughed through this so fast, despite having a busy schedule. ‘Nobody Killed Her’ is a book with a lot going on that is surprisingly easy to read. I was trying to pick apart who committed the crime, and why, and how! But at the same time I revelled in unraveling the lives of these two engaging women, and the culture, the history, the futures they hoped for.
An excellent book. Shame it’s hard to get hold of at a decent price because £20 is a lot for a paperback no matter how amazing it is.

The nation sinks deep into mourning as news of former prime minister Rani Shah s assassination arrives. Intelligence agencies, opposition leaders, the Army top brass, her closest relatives all seem to be shifting in their chairs even as special investigative teams gear up to file a report. Conspiracy theories abound for there were many who stood to gain if she pulled out of the imminent elections. The needle of suspicion points most immediately to Madam Shah s close confidante Nazneen Khan, who was seen sitting right beside her in the convoy and, oddly, escaped the bomb blast unscathed. Sabyn Javeri s tale of intense friendship between two ambitious women unfolds in a country steeped in fanaticism and patriarchy. Set against a backdrop of intrigue and political machinations, this is a novel about love, loyalty, obsession and deception. Nobody Kills Her is dark noir meets pacey courtroom drama. An electrifying debut you will rave about to everyone you meet.
