Crime, high finance and journalism - all are interconnected in this early thriller by the author of On Wings of Eagles, Lie Down with Lions, and The Key to Rebecca. In one suspenseful, action-packed day, fortunes change hands as the Evening Post's ambitious young reporter scrambles to crack the story. A suicidal junior minister, an avaricious tycoon, and a seasoned criminal with his team of tough "lads" all play their parts in a scheme that moves "paper money" around at a dizzying pace.
It would make a powerful government official risk his reputation -- and career -- in one unforgettable night....
It would set the stock market spinning in a bold move to take over a giant corporation....
And it was worth any gamble for a corporate raider who used illicit information as his tool -- and deadly violence as his weapon....
An explosive novel of high finance and underworld villainy from Ken Follett, the grand master of international action and suspense.
