Video journalist Jonas Brand is on a rail journey from Zurich to
Basel when stock trader Paolo Contini appears to throw himself from
the train to his death. Brand sets his footage of the aftermath of
the incident aside to investigate an apparently unconnected
coincidence: two 100-Swiss-franc banknotes bearing the same serial
number have come into his possession. Sensing an opportunity to
graduate from celebrity journalism to serious investigation, he has
the banknotes analysed, with bizarrely contradictiory - and fatal -
results. Set in the tangled world of finance, politics and the
media, Montecristo is a pacy conspiracy thriller full of betrayal
and underhand tactics - a sharp and entertaining demonstration of
the topical maxim that some banks are simply 'too big to fail'.
