Bankers build their careers on trust, or so everyone thinks, till a series of murders threaten to destroy the reputation that the Greater Boston Global Bank (GB2) has built over the years. Who is behind these killings, and what is their motive? When Karan Panjabi, press reporter and ex-banker, digs deeper, he realizes that he has stumbled upon a global conspiracy with far-reaching ramifications - a secret that could not only destroy the bank but also cast a shadow on the entire nation.

Temples are places of worship, oceans of tranquillity, or so everyone thinks, till a series of murders threatens to destroy the carefully cultivated reputation of the royal family of Thiruvanathapuram. And when fingers point towards the opening of the hitherto sealed vaults at the Padmanabha Swamy Temple that is under the control of the royals, all hell breaks loose. Meanwhile, a heist at the Wafi Mall in Dubai leads investigators to uncover a massive racket in the smuggling of antiques from the ruins of temples in south India.

Publisher's Summary
On 8 November, when the clock strikes 8, your money will be no good.
Somewhere on the India-Nepal border, a car full of passengers swerves off a highway and plunges into a valley, its trunk full of cash.
In the UK, a Bollywood starlet wins Big Survivor, the most popular reality TV show in the country.
In Panama, Central America, a whistle-blower at a law firm brings down billionaires across the globe.
And in India, a new RBI Governor is appointed.
Aditya Kesavan is dynamic, charismatic and ambitious. And he's been handed the reins of the RBI on a platter. His only job: to make sure he doesn't rock the boat. But, unknown to him, the wheels have begun to turn, as the country heads towards the biggest financial event in modern Indian history. And Governor Kesavan is about to carry out the most brazen act of his life - and, perhaps, his most foolish. Will he be able to pull himself out of the mess he has got into or will he have to surrender to the manipulative forces behind the scenes? Running desperately out of time, the Governor must set things right.

Inspired by Real Life Events
This was my first book by Ravi Subramanian and it truly reveals the linkages between the Govt of India and the RBI. The deep rooted connections between demonitization, illicit currency, match fixing, terrorism and bollywood are nicely brought out by the author, that is understandable by common man and a reader who is not involved in banking arena. It was a very good listening especially the climax about the role of various interlinked characters. The author has successfully woven several real life events into a financial thriller. He has also explained some important concepts like repo rate etc which are truly informative. Overall an excellent thriller with some predictable plots yet with some guesses in next. I will definately be listening to more of Ravi Subramanian in the coming months

Story of Governance at the highest level.
I have been reading Ravi Subrahmanian for some time now. I just finished reading his another recent book " Don't Tell the Governor" .
Given the storyboard (of course a fiction) that it is all to do with Central Govt, RBI , power brokers, criminals, aircraft highjacking drama, terrorists and more importantly about how a Govt functions at highest level in tackling critical issues in the interest of the nation and it's people , the book is a fantastic read as a kind of detective story .
I strongly recommend it's read especially now when the nation is going through a general election. The reward one gets is that there is a lot of comparison to draw about real life situation and beyond to enjoy it's impact as a fictional story.
Do not loose time, pick your copy and read and there is an audio version also as an option .

Excellent narration but Predictable plot.
Plot revolving around the aroma of estrogen a bit tad cliche. Readers expect a lot more from you Ravi

Read it twice!
Catches and holds your attention right from the beginning. The story takes its inspiration from some of the real life incidents in the Indian political scene and weaves it with gripping fiction. Masterful story telling right to the end by Ravi Subramaniam.
