About this audiobook
'Terrific' Sunday Times
___________
In the dark world of cryptocurrency, there's a high price to pay . . .
From the central bank of El Salvador to a tantalum mine in Rwanda, the Acropolis Museum in Athens to the biggest freeport on the planet in Dubai, enter a world ruled by ones and zeroes and inhabited by people who don't believe in trust.
Nathan Pike is one of those people. To some he's a digital Robin Hood. To others he's nothing but an amoral hacker. A codebreaking and encryption expert, he sells his skills to whoever can pay him what he wants or give him something he needs.
And when he's sprung from a Cambodian prison by a woman calling herself Melody Jones, he's made an offer the likes of which he's never seen before.

Since then, Andy McNab has become one of the world's best-selling writers. As well as several non-fiction bestsellers including Bravo Two Zero, the biggest selling British work of military history, he is the author of numerous bestselling Nick Stone and Tom Buckingham thrillers, in addition to books for children. He continues to also be a spokesperson and fundraiser for both military and literacy charities, and in 2017 was appointed a CBE in the Queen's Birthday Honours List for services to literacy.
