Colonel Samagra Vol XVI

One of the most boring of the Colonel volumes but for one that is short crisp and just as you begin to guess the criminal, the person is unmasked. Yes this is the story Kaktarua Brityanta that is just as Jayanta tells is completed in a very short time. The next best is the Apeman Rahasya which involves a sighting of a huge ape in three corners of the country followed by violent killings in two occassions and so the daring adventurerer in Haldermoshai start exploring the farthest cities while Colonel takes Jayanta to the nearer one where he expects to draw the curtain. Haldermoshai also holds cue for another incident Andhyakarer Nayak which is too much complex in plot that seems not worthy of the actual mystery that it has in store. A bit similar in complications is Lalgarher Ratnapetika that is narrated by Colonel which interestingly adds to the misery like always. As the Colonel with Jayanta takes on a scientific treachery coupled with murder in Rahasya Jakhan Samudrik it become obvious about the nature of the crime though Jayanta is here a remote observer and not an active member of the adventure.
