A penniless publisher teetering on the brink Hugh Emerson runs a small, prestigious publishing house. But literature doesn t pay the bills, and now his bestselling author is the subject of a salacious story in the gutter press. A newspaper dynasty struggling to survive Ned Macaulay, heir to a newspaper fortune and Hugh s best friend, steps in to help. But Ned has problems of his own. The family firm faces bankruptcy, and to save it he must outsmart the self-serving sycophants at Waring s bank. Ruthless bankers closing in for the kill Hugh and Ned are about to be dragged into a cut-throat world of devious investors and muck-raking journalists. It s darker and dirtier than they ever imagined - and if they want to succeed, they ll have to play dirty too...
