Intriguing concept of the different circumstances and people a bank note travels through. The audiobook is formed of four novellas. The first two follow the journey of a £20 in London. The second two follow a $20 in New York. The first two stories have the same starting point and as proceed give a different aspects of the same situation.The second two also follows this format but takes a different direction immediately. There is a fast pace to the books with several characters appearing for cameo parts and others with a more central role. I liked the first two stories but the second two did not sit right with me and was

The writing is British which suits the first two stories but doesn’t quite feel right for the second two. In my opinion there’s some minor errors in the language used, for example, I'm sure an American would still use the word cookie even when describing a Jammie dodger. Biscuits are a very different over there. There was also an odd word used in book one. I’m sure I heard the narrator say ‘turncoat’ above the wound. I think it was meant to be tourniquet. Not sure how much this is the narrator or that the book might not have gone through professional editing?

The narrator, Matthew Kerslak, is British and completely suits the first two stories. The second two are in New York. He does give some characterisation and accents. By the last novella the narrator sounded tired. But then again it could be just my perception. Just to make the reader aware that there is a lot of swearing in the story. It all feels in context but better to be aware if not to your taste.

A compelling set of stories, drawing the reader into the world of single bank notes, as they travel on from place to place, from hand to hand, from honest citizen to violent criminals.
However, I did find some of the dialogue unbelievable, I couldn't imagine using British colloquialisms like "mate" or "bloody" as much as they do here.

Compelling story, slightly let down by dialogue

The different stories of the traveling bank notes was an interesting and original storyline . I throughly enjoyed listening to the narrator and thought he portrayed the various characters extremely well.

I cannot say that this novel is perfect, but the author has a strong command over the aspects I’ve covered so far and has truly made an engaging story that was more than worth an audio book to listen to.
