When
booze smugglers Jai and Mike reconsider their options after another close brush
with the law, their friend Aziz, a corporate lawyer comes up with a plan for
all of them to rake in even more money with less risk. Setting up an
undetectable, fool proof scam, the boys who grew up together in the same London
neighbourhood are now going to grow rich together, and quick. As with the best
laid plans, they’d not counted on a few bumps along the way in the form of the
intrepid fraud investigator who picks up on their trail, and Pam, the femme
fatale whose sari blouses leave less to the imagination than bikinis, who has
her eye set firmly on Jai. Knowing you have to risk it big to make it big, the
boys put everything on the line in this high-speed thrill ride of a novel. But
will they come out laughing or are they walking into a trap?
Behind

About
the author
Raj Kundra is an entrepreneur and a
businessman. This is his first novel.
Me
thinks
For a debut author Raj
Kundra has done an impressive job here. I wouldn’t say it is excellent or
trendsetting in Indian literature but yes strong enough for people to sit up
and take notice about him as an author. The
genre – thriller chosen by him needs a lot of finesse to give a riveting end
product and to quite an extent he has managed to do that. I did not like the
usage of cuss words for I believe they are a huge turn off for me as a reader.
They make me cringe and want me to stop reading for a moment. The story is
undoubtedly a page turner and edge of the seat thriller. The narration though
bumpy at a few places makes it an enjoyable and funny read.
A onetime read purely for
the classy attempt done by the author!
