An Indian Spy in Pakistan

I don't understand why this book has so many positive reviews. Either they did not read the book, or they have chimed in with overenthusiastic “patriotism”. First, this book is not “An Indian Spy in Pakistan” but “An Indian Spy in Pakistan Jails”. We don't learn anything about the mission, his purpose, or his life as a spy. The book starts abruptly and ends abruptly. A few pages in, he is caught in the book about his time in various jails.

Which would have still made for a good story if there was a flow to it. It feels like random diary entries with a stream of conscious flow. How can I root for the lead character and applaud his bravery for the nation when I don't know anything about him? After finishing the entire book, all I know is he is parents, wife and child (he never met), he thoughts on current affairs of that time and how much he finds homosexuality disgusting :upside down smile: I literally know more about the criminals in his jail and the lead character.

What kind of a “memoir” ends with you learning nothing about the man it is about? The editors of this book should rethink their work on this book.

Oh my god, the narrator was SO bad. I have consumed my fair share of audiobooks to realise that basic decent narration is not hard to achieve. Text-to-Speech bot would have made for a more engaging narration. This was prolly one of the slowest and most boring “spy books” I might have read.
