Omschrijving

The inside story of Lex Greensill's meteoric rise and fall, and the billion dollar scandal that ensared David Cameron, SoftBank and Credit Suisse.

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 story-teller 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 the 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

Powerful

Mavin knows how to keep you hooked . . . gripping
