India has the longest constitution in the world with elaborate laws and various clauses, which make the judicial system quite complicated to understand but also comprehensive to all the people in the community whether minority or not.
I haven't seen "How to get away with murder" yet, but might have a look at it because of this book. Thank you!
If you are willing to put up with a slow paced plot, then you might like it.

Despite how much I love a good thriller, I have never read one quite like this. Usually the thrillers I read, though suspenseful and enjoyable, are not quite as deep. This book went beyond being a thriller while it explored different philosophical and political themes.

Yes. It reminded me of "Anti-black Prejudice in America" by Anders A. Eklof, as they both touch on how race can have great influence on various societal decisions.

This book didn't evoke memories of another book for me, but rather of a TV series I thoroughly enjoyed called "The Good Wife." Like the show, it offers insights into the workings of the legal system and the lengths some lawyers will go to secure victory in their cases.
