About the Book 'TERRIFIC PLOT, A HORRIFIC CRIME! A DISTURBING STORY, NARRATED SUPERBLY.' - SUJOY GHOSH, DIRECTOR OF KAHAANI AND JANE-E-JAAN MONSTER, MAD-MAN OR COLD-BLOODED KILLER? When bus driver Shanker Lande goes on a deadly rampage through the streets of Pune, the city is left reeling. Ten people are crushed to death, seventy maimed for life before he is captured. Varun Gupte, a young, ambitious lawyer, defies the bar association's boycott and takes on Lande's case, shocking everyone. With the trial fast-tracked to manage the public's mounting rage, Varun races against time to defend Lande. As the case unfolds, Varun must confront difficult questions about justice, revenge and the human psyche. In the process, he turns to Dr Shekhar Kanitkar, a psychiatrist who lost his own son in the same rampage. Will the two men unearth the truth? This intense psychological thriller, inspired by a real incident, masterfully explores the blurred lines between insanity and reason, and debates uncomfortable truths about crime and punishment.
