The high-flyers of London's investment banks are all too aware that information is gold-dust when billion pound deals are at stake. But as the highly-paid guns at Skidder Barton, a fading giant in the cut-throat corporate finance sector, secretly plot the huge take-over that will revive their fortunes, they forget that there's one place they can be overheard ... Len and his cabbie colleagues, Terry and Einstein, embark on a cunning and dangerous attempt to profit from the next big take-over move. Because Len needs the money, and he needs it fast - his daughter's life depends on it. Will the cabbies' world of solidarity triumph over the brutal self-interest of the sharp suits who will stop at nothing on the road to unimaginable riches?
