Hi there!
Welcome back to Satisfaction for Insatiable Readers.
Today, we're welcoming Rachel's Random Resources as we get set to feature the latest addition to the Barnabas Tew series from author Columbkill Noonan. Names ring a bell? Well, they rather should I should think by now seeing as we've featured QUITE a few of this growing series over the months (years?) starring the slightly bumbling but always entertaining Barnabas and Wilfred (think Sherlock and Watson). This time around, it's another out of this world adventure filled with mystery, danger, and humorous situations you may not see coming. Sound like your bag? Great! Read on my friends, read on....

About the book...
Rama, the Hindu god who maintains dharma, or the balance of all things, is in terrible trouble, and only Barnabas and Wilfred can save him!
Private detectives to the gods, Barnabas Tew and Wilfred Colby, believed they’d discovered the secret to taking charge of their destinies. Unfortunately, they’re about to be taught a hard lesson: nothing is as it seems and taking control is easier said than done.
Fresh off their most challenging case to date, the two detectives step into a cenote: an otherworldly portal that connects worlds and can take them anywhere if they how to use it. Each is hoping to be reunited with someone he left behind, but they soon realize that something has gone terribly, disastrously wrong. Instead of being reunited with their lady-loves, they find themselves in a Hindu temple, together with Kamadeva, the Hindu god of desire.
Kamadeva asks them to save his friend Rama, who is in grave danger. It seems an innocent enough request, but Barnabas and Wilfred have learned that not everything is at it seems, and the right thing to do is not always so obvious. It doesn’t take long to discover that not all the gods want Rama saved, leaving the two detectives to make a terrible choice.
The detectives have faced dangerous deities before, but the Hindu gods are different. Otherworldly, wise, and full of shadowy motivations, they all seek to manipulate the hapless detectives to suit their purposes.
Can Barnabas and Wilfred see through the illusions and the lies to uncover the truth of the matter? Or will they fail, and choose the wrong side?
