Just an IMPOSTER
It tries to include indian culture and touch but ends being cheap and pathetic.
Story is monotonous and utterly boring.
I would not recommend this book.

Meet the Indian John Grisham - Ravi Subramanian

The Entertaining Bankster!
"The Bankster? Does that mean a Banker who is a Gangster?"
The cover page has a quote from The Wall Street Journal which says, “Meet the John Grisham of banking’. "John Grisham?? Aha! This will be exciting!"
The Bankster has three stories set in 3 different cities- Angola, Kerela and Mumbai! The three stories are so diverse and it is hard to believe that they would have a common link. This unpredictability keep...
