Two young management graduates, with nothing similar in family backgrounds and temperament, join the New York International bank on the same day and take two entirely different routes to success. Bothe 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 milieu 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, defeit and malevolence, loveand lust, and the desperate struggle for status and power. And, above all, ther 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.
