When Nick Leeson masterminded the illegal trading scheme that would lose $1.3 billion in assets belonging to Barings, one of the oldest and most respected banks in London, the story was front page news around the world. But what really happened to cause the downfall of "the Queen's Bank", and who was actually responsible? Fay investigates the facts behind the headlines and discovers a closed network of privilege, greed, and incompetence.
