Good stories with several great twists
After a slow and meandering beginning (to lull you into a false relaxation) the first story reaches one of the biggest twists in a story you may ever experience. The change in action is brilliant. Then a guy gets shots in the leg and the vet takes out the bullet. The vet spends too much on a lady in a strip club and the $20 dollars continues to change hands.
We visit a railway station and listen as the $20 note moves from location and person to several others, mixing the shocking with the outrageous. Be warned, you will be shocked at some of the turns and twists, mostly when you’re not expecting it.
Connected short stories and many containing bad language and some sexual comments not suitable for younger people, is a good collection and easily listenable.

good spin
David Fuentes has caught my attention with this new spin on a set of short stories. Each story is linked as one particular banknote moves from person to person. Loose ends that I though originally were left hanging, were all neatly tied up by the end of each set. Stories are set separately in the UK and in the USA

Follow the money
I cannot say that this novel is perfect, but the author has a strong command over the aspects I’ve covered so far and has truly made an engaging story that was more than worth an audio book to listen to.

Excellent!
A very cleaver, fast, varied,story. Of money on its journey through people’s lives. Hysterical, shocking, sad, but never dull! A very entertaining way to pass four hours+. I must look for more from David Fuentes. Ten out of ten for Mathew Kerslakes swift change and accurate accents, even getting my own Scottish one correct. A feat very few thespians can achieve!

Intriguing concept
Intriguing concept of the different circumstances and people a bank note travels through. The audiobook is formed of four novellas. The first two follow the journey of a £20 in London. The second two follow a $20 in New York. The first two stories have the same starting point and as proceed give a different aspects of the same situation.The second two also follows this format but takes a different direction immediately. There is a fast pace to the books with several characters appearing for cameo parts and others with a more central role. I liked the first two stories but the second two did not sit right with me and was
The writing is British which suits the first two stories but doesn’t quite feel right for the second two. In my opinion there’s some minor errors in the language used, for example, I'm sure an American would still use the word cookie even when describing a Jammie dodger. Biscuits are a very different over there. There was also an odd word used in book one. I’m sure I heard the narrator say ‘turncoat’ above the wound. I think it was meant to be tourniquet. Not sure how much this is the narrator or that the book might not have gone through professional editing?
The narrator, Matthew Kerslak, is British and completely suits the first two stories. The second two are in New York. He does give some characterisation and accents. By the last novella the narrator sounded tired. But then again it could be just my perception. Just to make the reader aware that there is a lot of swearing in the story. It all feels in context but better to be aware if not to your taste.
