Praise for this compelling book includes accolades for its readability and insightful analysis of Greece's economic collapse. It offers a brisk account of the country's descent into crisis, highlighting the pivotal role of the Eurozone and the markets. The narrative unfolds as a political and legal thriller, chronicling the intense decisions made in various global capitals and meetings. Beginning in October 2009, it details how a new Greek government shocked the world by revealing a staggering fiscal deficit, marking the onset of a crisis that had been brewing since the Euro's inception. As Greece sought a bailout in May 2010, the initial response from the Eurozone failed to reassure markets, leading to severe austerity measures and widespread social unrest. The repercussions extended beyond Greece, with Ireland and Portugal also facing bailouts. The austerity measures deepened Greece's recession, causing soaring unemployment and social tensions. Six years into the crisis, Greece finds itself in a third bailout, grappling with questions about alternative solutions, the impact of default threats, and the consequences of remaining in the Euro. This gripping account, told from the perspective of a key decision-maker, illuminates a tumultuous period in European history.
