Présentation de l'éditeur

20th ANNIVERSARY EDITION, with a preface by the author on the state of the financial industry, its effect on the world, and how Nest of Vipers is as relevant as ever... BUY LOW. SELL HIGH. GET OUT ALIVE. Money is Sarah Jensen’s playground. International markets. She’s one of the most successful foreign-exchange traders in London: brilliant, beautiful, unpredictable—the perfect undercover agent to infiltrate the cutthroat Inter-Continental Bank and investigate questionable trading practices for the governor of the Bank of England. Her target is Dante Scarpirato, a smooth, arrogant high-stakes trader who’s making a killing in—and out of—the market. For Sarah, the ultimate risk-taker, he’s the ultimate risk... But the multi-million dollar trading scheme she penetrates is only the tip of an international conspiracy, paid for in the currency of blood. Now Sarah, the hunter, is hunted, dangerous prey, determined to bring down the officials who betrayed her—and the assassins who have her in their sights...

Biographie de l'auteur

After reading Politics, Philosophy and Economics at Oxford University, Linda Davies worked for seven years as an investment banker, specializing in leveraged buyouts before moving onto the trading floor where she again focused on leveraged products. There she dreamed up the plot to her first globally successful financial thriller, Nest of Vipers. As a full time writer, Linda has written five more books for adults and four books for children. Her most recent thriller, ARk Storm, will be published by Tor Books in 2013. After leaving investment banking, she lived for three years in Peru, then a stint in London, before she moved with her husband and three children to the Middle East. In 2005 she and her husband were sailing in the Arabian Gulf when they were kidnapped by Iranian forces. They were held hostage on mainland Iran for two weeks before being released. After eight happy years living in Dubai, Linda returned to the UK in 2012 where she lives with her family deep in the English countryside.
