Una historia apasionante acerca de los hombres y mujeres de quienes depende la información y desinformación de la opinión pública.
Esta magnífica novela explora las corruptas interrelaciones entre el crimen organizado, las altas finanzas y el periodismo. La acción se desarrolla a lo largo de un día normal en la sede de un periódico londinense. Cada uno de los capítulos constituye la crónica de una hora de ese día, y describe tanto los entretelones de la sala de redacción como los acontecimientos que el periódico convierte en noticia.
Papel moneda pertenece a la etapa de Follett alejada de la novela histórica, más centrada en el thriller y el mundo contemporáneo.

Work Description
Originally published under the pseudonym Zachary Stone, this is a happily rediscovered suspense thriller written in the mid-'70s by Follett, the bestselling author of Lie Down with Lions.
Its plot, set in London, and intended to show that crime, high finance and journalism are corruptly interconnected, is, according to Follett, the cleverest he has ever devised. The fast-paced action spans, in hour-to-hour fashion, one day in the life of an evening newspaper and features an adulterous politician, a corrupt financier, a criminal gang, a mentally retarded youth and an eager cub reporter, their linked destinies all moving toward a single and intensely exciting climax. Though painted in broad brushstrokes, the characters seem compellingly real, as do their professional environments. Follett can proudly acknowledge this one.
