Publisher's summary

It was a deal to die for. And somebody will.

Paul Murray is an ex-Olympic runner, so his training is perfect for the rigours of multimillion-dollar bond trading in the City of London.

The pace is breakneck, the smell of success intoxicating. Then the body of his colleague Debbie is fished out of the Thames, and Paul’s world is turned upside down. He begins a dangerous, chaotic tumble into the darker side of trading.

From the glass towers of London to the frenzied deals of Wall Street and the murky back rooms of Las Vegas glitz, Paul has got to find answers fast before someone else makes a killing.

OK story, unpleasant accents in the narration

The accents in the narration were unpleasant. The book has potential but I gave up. Probably a better print than audio book. I did very much like "66 deg north" by same author.

Clever and suspenseful financial thriller

Another fantastic stand-alone thriller by Michael Ridpath, expertly read by Michael Thorpe. Not a dull moment, interesting characters brought to full beauty by the narrator, an intriguing story developping in a fascinating international setting. After reading a first book by Mr Ridpath playing in the realm of high-finance I got hooked to this autor and will look for more now. Owning more than 450 audiobooks it is getting difficult for me to find pearls in the audible catalogue - this book has been one! Thank you Mr Ridpath and Mr Thorpe for taking me into your world! I particularly enjoyed the nice balance of business and private lives and how masterfully they are intervowen. Good, unpretentious and belieavable language, dialogues and diction. A slight critical thought I would reserve for the end which seems a bit rushed and abrupt after the whole story is being built up so nicely and after taking the reader to many unexpected turns! Nevertheless a full 5 stars!
