Its first novel by Ravi Subramanian and I must say that while reading this book, it did not appear to me that this is Mr. Ravi Subramanian's first novel. Its greatly engrossing novel, well written.
Here is something about this novel:
Two young management graduates, with nothing similar in family backgrounds and temperament, join New York International Bank on the same day and take entirely different routes to success. Both rise up the ranks at breakneck speed: the fast and aggressive Sundeep, who will stoop to anything to get ahead , and the mature and sensible Swami, with a high regard for good old ethics. The racy narrative set in the high-pressure millieu of competitive banking carries the undercurrent of a clash of values, in the intermeshed realms of the personal and the professional. This is a story peppered with ambition and frustration, deceit and malevolence, love and lust, and the desperate struggle for status and power. And, above all, there is a top-notch banker who plays the benevolent God whenever crises loom over the young guns...An insider's fictionalised account of how Indian professionals experience the world of foreign banks, the story spans three continents.
