“This read was definitely out of my comfort zone, I picked it up for its cover which had piqued my interest.
This book to me was a tale of someone who was not a winner. A winners story is heard, retold and praised but what of the ones who could not help but let conditionings of their past rule them over and miss upon what could’ve been a textbook victory.
The book also points out the intricacies and flaws of different human relationships and the power dynamics within an organisation , but also most importantly propagates the idea of perseverance through the main character. Despite all his shortcomings what had mattered was he did not quit.
And agreeing with the other reviewers, this was definitely not a thriller, but a historical fiction.”
