'An exciting journey into the dark under belly of the ultra-rich world of banking' The Times

'Immersive, satisfying, tense - and timely: This is probably happening for real right now' Lee Child

**********

Two women who have lost so much.

Two women with so much more to lose.

Annabel - her husband has died in a plane crash. But was it really an accident?

Marina - her editor has been found murdered. Is it a coincidence that he was working to expose a huge banking scandal?

Two women who will stop at nothing to find out the truth.

But the truth is not always what it seems.
