In a damp Blackpool flat, James Parker is broke, restless, and stuck in a life going nowhere - until he discovers a glitch in a Bitcoin trading platform that begins pouring millions into his account. Most people would keep it quiet. James doesnt. He starts handing out money, buying cars for mates, throwing lavish parties in a town where fortunes are rare. To some hes a hero, a modern-day Robin Hood. But as the spending spirals and the police start asking questions, cracks begin to show. Deals get darker, loyalties shift, and James is left chasing the very people he once made rich. How far would you go if the money felt endless? And what would it cost when it finally ran out? From Global and Free Turn, Lewis Goodall uncovers the true story of a man who found a crack in the system and pulled his whole world through it.
