Both Coffee House and Hydrangea are part of the Esther Emmanuel series.[6] This was followed by Ruthinte Lokam in 2019,[7][8] Rest in Peace, a cozy mystery, in 2020[9][10][11] published by Mathrubhumi Books.[12][13][14] and 'Kanya Maria', a DC Books publication, in 2022.[15] The latest of his works is 'Orange Thottathile Athidhi', published by Mathrubhumi Books, in 2023.[16]
