Corruption, destruction, danger and murder: Welcome to the murky world
of the super-rich.
Timothy 'Timbo' Smith, part-time healer and self-styled security
analyst, travels down the dark canyons of global capitalism, from
short-selling scams in the City to the depleted rainforests of Brazil.
His accomplices in this irresistible safari through the late modern
world are two reformed alcoholics, the lovely and brilliant Lee
'Lethal' Thorold, and her husband Professor Luke Deverill, lecherous
Oxford philosopher and caustic computer wizard. Their misadventures are
followed at a bewildered distance by the played-out diplomatic
correspondent Dickie Pentecost, who tags along mostly because Timbo is
the only man who can cure his agonising back and is always one step
behind the Machiavellian actions of those who precede him.
From the author of the searing satire, Making Nice, comes his most
entertaining, perceptive and unflinching novel yet, lifting the veil on
the seedy realities of modern life.
