Q And A : Vikas Swarup.

Ram Mohammed Thomas, an 18-year-old orphan waiter has answered all the questions correctly on a quiz show to win a prize worth a billion dollars. The producers of the show are not prepared to pay the prize money and decide to accuse him of cheating, and get him arrested. Thomas’ sisterly lawyer takes charge of the case and questions him to narrate his journey through the quiz and how he managed to answer all 13 questions correctly. This is where the story begins. Thirteen questions and their answers translated through a rather compactly woven narrative centred on social tragedies, comprising of chapters of life that anyone can go through.
