Why did they sack me? For Harry Lamb, that is his sole concern after suddenly losing his job at a City stockbroking firm. He starts to investigate the circumstances surrounding his dismissal. Why did they choose me? For Julia Porter, that becomes her main question when she is plucked from her job at a management consultancy to work for a year at the Serious Fraud Office. Her mission is to investigate the largest insider dealing ring the City of London has ever seen. Samuel Haverstone, the chairman of Cable Media, is a man obsessed with controlling the greatest source of power and wealth in the modern world- information. Nothing will be allowed to stand in his way. When Harry and Julia discover too much about him, they find themselves alone and on the run, hunted by the most sophisticated surveillance and tracking systems ever assembled in private hands. To survive, they must outwit the satellites.
