Michael Lewis's epic bestseller tells the outrageous story of the multi-millionaires and whizz kids who scammed the banking system in the blink of an eye - and the whistleblowers who tried to stop them. It's hilarious, terrifying and it's all true. 'Explosive . . . a juggernaut of a book.' Will Pavia, The Times 'Thrilling, a masterclass.' Robert McCrum, Observer, Books of the Year 'Jaw-dropping, astonishing . . . Lewis has lit the touch paper.' Liam Halligan, Spectator 'Probably the best current writer in America.' Tom Wolfe 'I read Michael Lewis for the same reasons I watch Tiger Woods. I'll never play like that. But it's good to be reminded every now and again what genius looks like.' Malcolm Gladwell
