Title: A disappointing book that fails to meet the crtitics aclaim
Review: I was seduced by the hyperboles on the cover "... the thriller everyone has been waiting for", "Britain's most exciting new thriller writer", but I don't think the story lives up to these comments. Paul Murray is a junior bond trader in the City of London with ambition and drive to succeed. When his colleague is found dead in the River Thames, Paul becomes the police's chief suspect. As he investigates the circumstances to her death he uncovers a large-scale fraud, and is also accused on insider dealing. It soon becomes apparent that to solve the murder he will have to solve the fraud and clear his name.
