    Pyramid of Lies is the inside story of one of the superstars of global FinTech, Lex Greensill, and the billion-pound scandal that led to his dramatic fall, from renowned journalist Duncan Mavin.

    Unputdownably delicious . . . the British version of Bad Blood . . . [but] better

    Terrific . . . shows the emptiness behind the bombast

    A meticulously researched and enjoyably lively account

    Forensic and riveting

    An incredible book, transforming a complex financial scandal into a rich character drama

    Quite simply one of the best books of investigative journalism I have ever read. Duncan Mavin is a natural storyteller and a brilliant sleuth

    Leaves little doubt that much is indeed wrong in the excessively close relationship between some financiers and politicians . . . [who] stood to gain millions of pounds

    Mavin expertly demystifies the rise and fall of Greensill Capital and weaves an intriguing tale at the cross section of sleaze, power and greed at the heart of UK politics and global finance. A fascinating – and prescient – read

    The extraordinary story of Greensill’s rise and collapse is a microcosm of global finance in the last decade . . . a keen eye for the colourful – and at times absurd – human drama

    The definitive account of Greensill Capital’s rise and spectacular meltdown . . . and a searing inquisition into the political connections that make it all possible

    A classic cautionary tale, as fun to read as it is disturbing. Meticulously reported and brilliantly narrated

    Mavin expertly unfolds a searing, unflinching, incisive, and definitively reported narrative on one of the great financial scandals of our time and the wreckage left in its wake . . . a must-read cautionary tale

    A keen eye for the colourful and at times absurd human drama
