      The high-flyers of London's investment banks are all too aware that information is gold-dust when billion pound deals are at stake. But as the highly-paid guns at Skidder Barton, a fading giant in the cut-throat corporate finance sector, secretly plot the huge take-over that will revive their fortunes, they forget that there's one place they can be overheard ... Len and his cabbie colleagues, Terry and Einstein, embark on a cunning and dangerous attempt to profit from the next big take-over move. Because Len needs the money, and he needs it fast - his daughter's life depends on it. Will the cabbies' world of solidarity triumph over the brutal self-interest of the sharp suits who will stop at nothing on the road to unimaginable riches?

      South London organised crime meets corporate culture in a riveting new thriller from the bestselling author of BLACK CABS. The Hills have hit hard times: they're losing cash hand over foot in the restaurants and clubs they own as fronts and, without money to launder, the family's a damn liability. As head of the felonious dynasty, it falls to Ronnie to work on their profitability. Striking a deal with his straight daughter Primrose's management-consultant boyfriend, things seem to be looking up. What with Rupert's brilliant business brain and the Hills' criminal muscle, the three innovative crimes they conspire to commit look set to make their fortune. The first two are brilliant successes, but when Rupert falls for an aristocratic femme fatale he needs to ditch Primrose in a hurry. Fearing Ronnie's wrath, he persuades one of the younger Hills to overthrow him so they can continue unimpeded with the last and most lucrative crime. But Rupert has reckoned without the cunning of a woman scorned...

    • Když britská tajná služba zjistí, že se v jedné z bývalých afrických kolonií možná chystají etnické čistky, Chris Cameron, kapitán HMS Indomitable, dostane rozkaz vstoupit do výsostných vod této země, ale vojensky se do vývoje v zemi nevměšovat. Na palubě lodě má i velmi atraktivní a bojovnou novinářku, která si uvědomuje, že reportáž z lodě může navždy zabezpečit nebo zničit její kariéru. Nečeká však, že do hry mohou vstoupit také emoce. Mezinárodní tlak sílí a ministerstvo zahraničí je nuceno nařídit stažení lodě z výsostných vod země. Situace na pevnině se dále zhoršuje. Cameron tak stojí tváří v tvář největší krizi svého osobního i profesního života.
