Reviews

[Kanwal Sharma · Rating 5 out of 5]

One of the very finest from the stable of SMP.

The story expands for more than a decade when - there happens to be a murder (?) almost fifteen years back.

A man is suddenly disappeared from the scene.

Some thinks he has eloped to a foreign land to enjoy a comfortable life with his keep.

Some other think - he is killed.

The son gets a postal money order every year which claims to be coming from his father...

What is next .... is the story of "Ek Crore Ka Joota" i.e. million dollar shoe.

A work of outstanding artistry, skill, and workmanship.

Its magnum opus and clearly - chef d'oeuvre.

Master at his best.

Not written by Pathak Sahab

I read almost all novels by Pathak Sahab in last 25 years. It is not his novel. It reminds me of James Hadley Chase novels.
But good script and fast novel.

5/5 stars

सस्पेंस अंत तक बना रहता हैं... जूते का रहस्य ही सबसे बड़ा प्लस पॉइंट हैं जो किताब को side रखने का मौका ही नहीं देता. Brilliant book🥰

Nothing exciting more like a narative

Never expected such poor story from this writer. Had much higher expectations from him looking at soemof his older books
