Deadlines, the first in Chris Dunn's Contango series, traces the
bid of raw young City reporter, Tom Stone, to crack the secret of a
spectacular City swindle mounted by Wolf de Boys, the brilliant
young financier. Tom has big problems: his relationship with his
upwardly mobile girlfriend, under pressure from her snobbish
parents, is dying a slow death; a mysterious caller, whose deep
voice somehow sounds familiar, and who keeps dropping hints about
de Boys; and his fight to keep his job on the Daily Standard.
Writing the 'splash' is never easy in Fleet Street. Can Tom Stone
crack his story and pull it off...? Fast-moving and exciting,
Deadlines reveals the squalor of Fleet Street in the seventies, and
the connection between the city and its scandals and the workings
of the press.
