Sobre IBD

Heads You Win is a tragicomedy of second chances. After taking early retirement Gus Cotton is surprised to find himself persuaded by two old friends - a disgraced wheeler-dealer and a convicted drug smuggler - into taking on the City by launching the greatest headhunting company of all time. Added to this mix the fourth partner in their venture is a beautiful young woman with an alcoholic past. In this the final volume of his Chronicle of Modern Twilight series Ferdinand Mount has created a poignant and hilariously funny exploration of the concept that none of us is beyond redemption.
