Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Call the Next Witness is an exciting detective story in which the suspense depends not on finding out "who done it," but rather on who will say what.

Mason not only weaves a gripping tale of death and detection in a small village, but also provides a fascinating insight into the religious, economic, political and psychological infrastructure of prewar Indian society.
