"An old-fashioned mystery in the model of Agatha Christie . . . . A frothy, fun, truly escapist read-offering perspective on a certain echelon that feels both hyperbolic and cuttingly real at the same time." - Vogue (Best of the Year So Far)
"A page turner: smart, funny and compelling." - The Guardian
"If Agatha Christie took a White Lotus trip to an Ayurvedic spa in the Indian Himalayas, she could do no better than Ram Murali's debut novel-a murder mystery that pays loving homage to the genre while crackling with wicked humor and subversive social satire." - Rolling Stone
"Crazy Rich Asians fans will flip for this ironic and delicious debut thriller set among the international jet set at a lush mountain spa in India, where a series of Agatha Christie-style locked-room murders thoroughly disrupts Ro Krishna's much-needed vacation. The fabulous Himalayan venue, perfect puzzle-box plot, charm and intelligence of the protagonist, and a cascade of knowing details about the lives (and jewels) of the ultra-rich make this a world-class escapist read." - Oprah Daily
"A fascinating genre mashup for the discerning-and reflective-mystery reader." - Kirkus Reviews (starred review)
"Murali's sly, knowing, and affectionate take on the foibles of the international jet set is as charming as it is compelling." - Crime Reads
"Ram Murali's Death in the Air is inspired by Agatha Christie's locked-room formula and James Hilton's Lost Horizon, but is far better than Christie and Hilton could muster. It's a smart, empathetic, provocative debut novel . . . . Death in the Air is a strong meditation on diaspora, justice, and identity that proves that formula fiction genres can be adapted to do surprisingly good work." - Reviewing the Evidence
"For fans of remote mysteries and lawyer main characters!" - Book Riot
"Glamorous, gripping, absolutely heaps of fun. I loved this." - Lucy Foley, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Guest List and The Paris Apartment
"A stunning, sophisticated, scalpel-sharp murder mystery. Powerful, fun, and hugely rewarding. Immensely impressive." - Chris Whitaker, New York Times bestselling author of We Begin at the End and All the Colors of the Dark
"Unexpected delights await on every page of Ram Murali's impressive and captivating debut. Crisp as a gin and tonic and delightfully wicked, this smart, smart novel delivers a sophisticated, subversive murder mystery set in the highest stratosphere of the international idle rich. I had to force myself not to binge it in one night so I could savor it like the rare and exquisite meal that it is." - Kevin Kwan, New York Times bestselling author of Crazy Rich Asians
"A warm broth of Golden Age mystery (both Agatha Christie and Richard Osman would be proud), contemporary comedy (think Crazy Rich Asians), and some nameless secret ingredient all Ram Murali's own. Evocative, provocative, and very, very fun." - A.J. Finn
"Twisty and absorbing, Death in the Air is a knockout mystery with a dry, dark humor all its own. It has endless glamor in the old sense of the word: as a sinister enchantment, casting a spell." - Flynn Berry, New York Times bestselling author of Under the Harrow and Northern Spy
"Murder most rich. International and humorous at just the right times, Death in the Air will set you soaring, drinking, and guessing all the way to the last page." - Ridley Pearson
"A romp of a whodunit, poking fun at the über wealthy whilst calmly meditating on both the horror of Partition and identity in a globalized world. I rattled through it. Ro is a very charming lead character indeed!" - Charlotte Vassell, author of The Other Half
"Littered with designer jewellery, accessories and activewear, Death in the Air fizzes with ambition, managing to be both showy and subversive, operating as it does around the axis of Partition . . . . Although it carries many of the hallmarks of an Agatha Christie-style murder mystery, what sets Death in the Air apart, leading to its unique conclusion, is its rejection of Western norms of justice and spirituality. The result is a fun, thought-provoking book-a commentary on greed, cultural appropriation and the peculiar malaise of the wealthy-a daring début." - Nii Ayikwei Parkes, author of Azúcar and Tail of the Blue Bird
