Money Men: A Hot Startup, A Billion Dollar Fraud, A Fight for the Truth
Original price was: Rs. 3,890.00.Rs. 3,690.00Current price is: Rs. 3,690.00.or 3 X Rs.1,230.00 withDan McCrum
Dan McCrum’s deep dive into Wirecard was the financial investigation of the decade. Money Men tells the story from inside Wirecard’s headquarters with entertaining drama and verve, but it also unspools the high-stakes reporting process McCrum and his colleagues carried out at the Financial Times against the odds. It instantly enters the canon of great financial crime books. — Bradley Hope, co-author of New York Times bestseller Billion Dollar Whale
A milestone in the history of investigative journalism. — Olaf Scholz, Chancellor of Germany, awarding the Reporters Forum Reporterpreis
Money Men is a rip-roaring ride into the underworld of the global economy. Dan McCrum is a proper reporter: there is no threat, con trick or hangover that will stand in his way. In today’s pandemic of lies, courageous journalism like this is the medicine. — Tom Burgis, Sunday Times bestselling author of Kleptopia
This behind-the-scenes look into the years of work and the persistence that was required to topple Wirecard is nothing short of incredible. ― AltFi
A fantastic book. Think of Dan as a bespectacled James Bond with a keyboard instead of a gun. ― Steve Clapham, author of The Smart Money Method
Money Men is the astonishing inside 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 exposé that will finally lay bare the truth.
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.
This 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.

The Creation of Wealth: The Tatas from the 19th to the 21st Century
Rs. 2,390.00or 3 X Rs.796.67 withR. M. Lala
‘A saga of enterprise, that is not to be missed’ – Business Line
‘The book stands out like a jewel in more ways than one… A writer of the calibre of R.M. Lala invests the entire narrative with simplicity, dignity and elegance’ – Financial Express
When Jamsetji Tata started a trading firm in 1868, few could have guessed that he was also opening an important chapter in the making of modern India. Jamsetji saw that the three keys to India’s industrial development were steel, hydroelectric power and technical education and research. A century and a half later, the Tatas can claim with justice to have lived up to the vision of their founder.
But the road to success has never been smooth. Appearing for the first time in this edition is the story of how the Tatas, with Ratan Tata at the helm, have had to grapple with change in the post-1992 era of economic reforms. In a frank epilogue, Ratan Tata talks about the difficulties he faced in implementing change, including resistance from his colleagues. The Creation of Wealth is R.M. Lala’s best-selling account of how the Tatas have been at the forefront in the making of the Indian nation “not just by their phenomenal achievements as industrialists and entrepreneurs but also by their signal contributions in areas like factory reforms, labour and social welfare, medical research, higher education, culture and arts and rural development.
