Publisher's summary
1866. Un jeune élève du collège de Windfield, non loin de Londres, se noie lors d'une escapade qui tourne au drame. Plusieurs garçons sont témoins de l'événement. Parmi eux, Edward Pilaster, l'héritier de la fortune des Pilaster, une richissime dynastie de banquiers, Hugh Pilaster, un cousin pauvre d'Edward, et Micky Miranda, fils d'un grand propriétaire terrien d'Amérique du Sud. Ce tragique accident - mais s'agit-il d'un accident ? - et les secrets qui l'entourent vont marquer à jamais ces trois garçons. Leurs destins ne cesseront plus de s'entrecroiser au fil des rivalités amoureuses et des luttes impitoyables pour s'assurer le contrôle de la banque. Bureaux lambrissés d'acajou des grands temples de la finance... Bas-fonds où gentlemen s'encanaillent dans le jeu ou la débauche...
En faisant le récit haletant des passions qui déchirent cette famille, Ken Follett redonne vie à la fascinante Angleterre victorienne. Dans toute sa splendeur. Dans toute sa noirceur.

Story
Jane, jeune étudiante anglaise qui vit à Paris, découvre que l'homme de sa vie, un Américain du nom d'Ellis, n'est pas le poète sans le sou qu'il prétend être, mais un agent de la CIA. Par dépit, elle épouse Jean-Pierre, un jeune médecin idéaliste comme elle, qui l'emmène en Afghanistan. Ils vivent là en soignant les résistants dans la Vallée des Lions, au cœur du Panshir. Mais Jean-Pierre n'est pas le médecin dévoué que l'on croit.

Jackson (Reid Scott) and Grimes (Cobie Smulders) race to find the killer, setting them on a collision course with the city’s crime underbelly, and a perpetrator who seems happy to toy with them. “Rule number two.

Story
Kidnappers grabbed Jenna in broad daylight, right in front of her children and their horrified classmates. Her family was issued an insane ransom demand: $25 million in cash and jewels, payable by the end of the school day, otherwise they’ll never see her again. As Jenna’s mother scrambles to gather the money, detectives Mo Butler and George Ortega follow the trail of the kidnappers, which will lead them through a sordid landscape of jealous lovers, broken dreamers, and twisted schemers. But every second counts, and there’s one thing Jenna Wade doesn’t have: very much time.

So smuggling in the occasional harmless bit of contraband barely counts, right? Not when you've got debts to pay and your job as a porter barely covers the rent. Everything changes when Jazz sees the chance to commit the perfect crime, with a reward too lucrative to turn down.
