Description

A tale of Drugs, Patents, Health Care and Greed Inspired from real life experiences, Road Humps and Sidewalks is the story of Arjun, a young, blind lawyer with a small law practice, and his battle with a Pharma Major. A realistic modern day drama about defenseless victims and fatal diseases exploited for commercial gain taken directly from the pages of the daily news. As thousands fall prey to a deadly viral infection, a dedicated team of doctors succeed in their quest for an effective treatment. But their achievement is short-lived, as the unscrupulous multi-national Berminger Pharmaceutical Corporation deliberately creates artificial scarcity of the drug by using their patent to profit from the panic. Exasperated with the powerful corporation's stone-cold indifference to loss of lives, doctors take the fight to the court relying on Arjun's counsel. Set in Hyderabad, the pharmaceutical capital of India, Arjun clashes in the court with India's leading patent lawyer. The battle turns nasty as dirty tricks and devious tactics undermine Arjun's challenge . Brilliant arguments and crafty legal reasoning enlighten, while gripping sequences add flavour to the fire of genius. Acclaimed a feast for legal thriller enthusiasts, the novel has been compared by reviewers with the works of John Grisham and Harper Lee.
