A Disappearance in Fiji by Nilima Rao
4.0
adventurous informative mysterious sad medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Plot
Diverse cast of characters: Yes

I enjoyed this historical procedural murder mystery!  I learned a lot about Fiji and indentured servitude and Indian migration during the racist, white supremacist, British colonization.  I appreciate that the author brought a personal perspective to her research and had a connection through her family to the story.  A bit slow at the start, and I kinda wish the MC’s past came up a bit earlier.  Worth reading!  4 stars

Historical procedural mystery with diverse characters
