About the book

"September 2008 and Irish banks hover on the brink or wipe-out ... As Minister of Finance Brian Lenihan struggles to avert catastrophe, the writing is on the wall for a country that has fallen foul of its own tiger-economy myth ... reveals exactly how the boom-time came to a shuddering halt - and how the international crisis turned a domestic collapse into a full-scale disaster ... it charts how: Ireland's property bubble was allowed to become dangerously over-inflated; bankers fuelled it by throwing out the rule book on lending; near-invisible financial legislation and reckless tax breaks from cavalier politicians made it all possible"--Publisher's description.
