Vivek Vaidyanath, a New York resident, gets a phone call from a grief-stricken son of his friend and comes to Mumbai. His friend is killed in a horrific road accident. Vivek through a member of the Special Task Force learns that his friend was part of a secretive and ruthless gang that deals with gun running, peddling drugs, and distributing counterfeit currency notes. Vivek realizes that he has unwittingly walked into a world of violence, gangsters, money launderers, drug traffickers, etc. Web of Deceit is a fast-paced thriller that takes the reader through various happenings in India, Singapore, South Africa, Bangkok, etc, and unfolds captivating mystery, murder, and money laundering.
This book takes the reader on a sweeping tour of the international legal field to reveal some of the patterns of difference, dominance, and disruption that belie international law's claim to universality. Pulling back the curtain on the "divisible college of international lawyers," Anthea Roberts shows how international lawyers in different states, regions, and geopolitical groupings are often subject to distinct incoming influences and outgoing spheres of influence in ways that reflect and reinforce differences in how they understand and approach international law. These divisions manifest themselves in contemporary controversies, such as debates about Crimea and the South China Sea. Not al...
