Eve Richardson, a lawyer in
the City ...
... has never seen so much money thrown at a company seemingly doomed to fail. Her employer is famous for all the wrong reasons. Wild parties, an elusive CEO, more often found pouring drinks than behind his desk, and unscrupulous investors injecting a billion pounds into a dubious business plan. But they’re betting on success.
CASH IS FOR LOSERS.
PEAK PAYMENTS IS HERE TO BURY IT.
When a company director disappears, Carl Adler, a regulator with complex morals, approaches Eve to recruit her. The only way to expose Peak Payments is from the inside. And Eve’s already unearthed what Adler obsesses about. The investors’ plan, one worth keeping a failed fintech on a drip of cash, lies hidden away.
About to lose her job, Eve has just one day to break into her employer’s secrets, steal the evidence and escape.
But this morning, as she heads to her dismissal meeting, a man rushes towards her, gun in hand.
Before Eve can wake the world to the truth, she’ll have to survive.
