Table of Contents
Investment banker Alex Masterley battles for survival as the fall out from the credit crunch threatens to send the City back to the Dark Ages of banking: no bonuses, iron-fisted regulation and the need to go on working beyond retirement age (which in Alex's case was supposed to be 35). Alex's colleague Clive gets fired (twice) and things become so desperate in the Masterley household that Penny, Alex's trophy corporate wife, has to get a job.
