London, 2007. It's summer in the City: the economy is booming, profits are up and the stock market sits near record highs.

But journalist Gil Peck is a lone voice worrying it can't last. Deep in the plumbing of the financial system, he has noticed strange things happening which could threaten the whole economy. But nobody wants to hear it: not the politicians taking credit for an end to boom and bust, not the bankers pocketing vast bonuses, not even Gil's bosses at the BBC, who think it's irrelevant.

When Gil gets a tip-off that a small northern bank has run out of money, everything changes. His report sparks the first run on a UK bank in 140 years. The next day, Marilyn Krol, a director of the Bank of England dies in an apparent suicide.

For Gil, it's personal. Marilyn was his lover: was his scoop connected to her suicide? Or is there something more sinister in her death? Amateur Sleuths Crime Thrillers Espionage Mystery Political Spies & Politics Thriller & Suspense İngiltere Kurgu Bankacılık Dedektif

One of those books where you can’t wait for the denouement but at the same time the reading of it is so enjoyable you don’t want it to end.

Great Read

The story kept me thoroughly engaged from start to finish. Peston's succinct description of the 2008 Crash made a good vehicle for the thriller element of the story.

a thoroughly enjoyable political thriller

A slow paced and somewhat predictable story line. A curious and unnecessary reference to Prince Andrew, who fits squarely into the undesirables box.

an underwhelming and in places predictable twist on a familiar tale

Really good listen

It was a great continuation of the story of Gil Peck. It would be best to read the first book first. Highly recommended 😊
