The Billion Dollar Whale'A rip-roaring ride into the underworld of
the global economy' Tom Burgis, author of KleptopiaThis is the
stranger-than-fiction story of Wirecard, once a $30 billion tech
darling, now a smouldering wreck, by the journalist who brought it
crashing down - perfect for those who loved Bad Blood and Empire of
Pain. When journalist Dan McCrum followed a tip to investigate the
hot new tech company challenging Silicon Valley, everything about
Wirecard looked a little too good to be true: offices were
sprouting up around the world, it was reporting runaway growth and
the CEO even wore a black turtleneck in tribute to Steve Jobs.In
the space of a few short years, the company had come from nowhere
to overtake industry giants like Commerzbank and Deutsche Bank on
the stock market. As McCrum dug deeper, he encountered a story
stranger and more dangerous than he ever imagined: a world of short
sellers and whistleblowers, pornographers and private militias,
hackers and spies. Before long he realised that he wasn't the only
one in pursuit.Shadowy figures were following him through the
streets of London, high-flying lawyers were sending ominous letters
to his boss, and he was named as the prime suspect in a criminal
inquiry. The race was on to prove his suspicions and clear his
name. Money Men is the astonishing true story of Wirecard's
multi-billion-dollar fraud, Europe's biggest new tech darling
revealed as a house of cards.Uncovering fake bank accounts, fake
offices and possibly even a fake death, McCrum offers a searing
expose that will finally lay bare the truth. Now adapted as the

Úprimná spoveď matky – manželky, ktorú zlé rozhodnutia vženú priamo
do náruče odborníkov. Ako žena, matka a manželka si je vedomá
svojich chýb, ťarcha rozhodnutí je však oveľa silnejšia. Stráca
nielen svoju rodinu, ale aj to, čo jej bolo najbližšie. Svoje deti.
Skutočný príbeh, tak trochu drsný, trochu podaný s vtipom o ženách,
mužoch a deťoch, ktorým jediné rozhodnutie zmenilo život. V poradí
štrnásta kniha od obľúbenej Evity Urbaníkovej prináša príbeh, ktorý
je zasadený do prostredia rodiny a medziľudských vzťahov. Citát:
Niekedy máme v živote jednoducho smolu. Niekedy sa dostaneme do
prúseru, ani nevieme ako. Ale niekedy si za všetko, čo sa deje,
môžeme sami.
