The London Stock Exchange can be a peculiar and dangerous place when financial reputations are at stake and no end of shocking scams and insider dealings are lurking under the surface. Enigmatic band leader Fitzroy Maclean Angel is drawn into this intrigue and puts his knowledge to work.

About this title

From the Back Cover:

Streetsmart, jazz-playing taxi driver Fitzroy Maclean Angel is the first to admit he's an innocent when it comes to financial wheeling and dealing in the big bad City. But he learns fast when his eminently fanciable yuppie neighbour Salome is suspected of insider trading on the Stock Exchange and asks for his help.

Financial leaks turn into a highly suspicious fatal car accident and a cunning conspiracy masterminded by a disgraced City whizzkid. Angel has no difficulty finding out who is to blame, but setting a trap- a financial scam designed to 'lose' money- lands him and his motley bunch in some heavy trouble.

"My laugh-aloud read of the year".

"In Mike Ripley we have at last an English crime writer who may be mentioned in the same breath as George V. Higgins and Elmore Leonard".
