Reseña del editor

Wealthy and cynical businessman Peter de Boer heads up Christie, a venture capitalist company. He specialises in aggressive takeovers and takes pleasure in taking down erstwhile successful businesses. In contrast, Nicky Landsaat's background couldn't be more different. With few advantages in life and desperate to escape her miserable home life, she has been forced to fight for her newly acquired job at Christie and no one thinks she will make it. But the real trouble begins when de Boer is approached with an unusual request, the Iraqi intelligence service want to bring down a household-name Western corporation and they think the aggressive businessman is just the man for the job. Caught between Iraqi threats to expose a dark secret and his remaining shreds of decency, de Boer are going to be playing a dangerous game but this time dealing with terrorists rather than the boardroom, and it looks like Nicky is going to be dragged along for the ride.Exciting fast-paced tale by the Danish master, reminiscent of John Grisham and Frederick Forsyth. Well-developed characters battle for control and power against exotic backdrops, with the same style and panache that fans will recognise from Jussi-Adler Olsen's Department Q series. Takeover has become an international success and a film is in the pipeline.
