Would I recommend? If you liked the first in the series, this one will feel comfortingly similar

I enjoyed The Widows of Malabar Hill, largely because Perveen Mistry is a nontraditional mystery protagonist, and I appreciated how the author brought to light elements of Indian culture and British colonial India that I was unaware of. This second installment is similar in a good way. I'll keep reading about Perveen, for sure.
