Synopsis

The upper-crust, family-owned bank of Tubal & Co, in the City of London, is in trouble. It's not the first time in its 340 year history, but it may be the last. A secret sale is under way, and a number of facts need to be kept hidden from the regulators and major clients.

Review:

"A tale half comic and half cautionary--and all compelling--about the financial crisis. Witty, thoughtful, briskly paced and entertaining--a terrific novel about excess, hubris, class and the age-old (usually one-sided) tussle between art and commerce."--"KirkusReviews" (starred review)

"With wit and keen observation, OTHER PEOPLE'S MONEY is an entertaining, observant, and informative excursion into a distant world surprisingly close at hand." "--Booklist
