Nest of Vipers - Linda Davies - Bog

"If John Grisham were female and British... he might write a twisty thriller such as Nest of Vipers" - Fortune Magazine. "Enough action, financial know-how and international hokey-pokey to satisfy any reader." - The New York Times. "The game of money is as much an aphrodisiac as power and forbidden sex in this gripping read." - Kirkus Reviews. "Masterful indirection. Davies provides enough cinematic narrow escapes and deadly failures to escape for MGM to have already begun producing the movie. Readers will hope this is not the last they see of her." - The Washington Post. Sarah Jensen is a brilliant but deeply troubled trader turned MI6 agent who goes undercover to investigate the bank suspected of major international fraud. The mission is far more dangerous than Sarah realises. Suspect number one is Dante Scarpirato - rich, smart, uncomfortably attractive. Sarah's investigation leads her deep into a world of deceit, ruthless power-brokers and a doomed relationship with Scarpirato. As Sarah confronts criminals who will stop at nothing - even murder - to prevent her from finding the truth, she must confront her own deep and twisted secrets that have haunted her since childhood but provide the only path to safety and redemption. Heralded by USA Today as the most talked about book of the year, Nest of Vipers is an international bestseller that launched the financial thriller genre and is written by one of the first women to step into the arena of global high finance.
