review 1: This was my third book of Ravi after I read his Bankster and Bankerupt respectively. I did not find this book as gripping as the first two. But still it made me read it at one sitting. Unlike other two books, I could sense where the story was going after finishing first 100-120 pages of 301 pages novel. May be that was because I do have read the other two of the same author. For last 100 pages, it was just like reading to find out how the author reveals the suspense in his great style which a reader have already more or less found out. Having said that, I found a book quite reasonable but not comparable with Bankster.
review 2: Anyone who started the book after seeing the cover page would have the slightest indication as to what is in store for them inside. Con... moregratulations first to the designer of the cover page.Coming to the content, the author once again, as usual, proved to be an excellent story teller through this book. The way in which professionalism in corporate arena is shown to be misled with an equal or more professionalism in extremist circles of the country, is awesome. The heart thumping events that start with somewhere in Naxal infected jungles of Eastern India slowly unfold into the concrete jungles of Mumbai and eventually annulate into a deadly turn of events totally unexpected towards the end. Its all about how an aggressive corporate banking expert (Deepak) who does anything to climb up the corporate ladder and who doesn’t mind evicting anyone in his way by hook or crook, gets into a clever and dangerous Naxal planned financial imbroglio through one of his female colleagues and her accomplice, unknowingly. He ultimately lands up in jail after one of his earlier victims in the corporate ball game unearths a highly sophisticated system of money laundering through Indian banking system and public distribution system of the country, by the Naxals to fund their motives, by placing some of their educated and prosperous sympathizers in the system, but ultimately get caught by the CBI and the Press.Every character in the story is well justified towards the end except for the fact that there is no mention about the poor faithful wife of Deepak and her reaction after she comes to know about her husband’s physical and emotional affair with his widowed colleague.Finally, the author should be appreciated for his intrinsic knowledge on the MNC banking operation insights and his ability to unfold and link extreme ends of diverse subjects. less
