Abstract
:
With match-fixing capturing global attention and allegations of corruption rocking Australian sport, Neil Humphreys' Match Fixer explains how a crime syndicate slips its tentacles around the Beautiful Game. Having been a soccer writer in both Singapore and Australia for more than a decade, Humphreys has covered match-fixing extensively and Match Fixer is the first novel to tackle the grubby subject. As the thriller moves from London to Singapore, via Melbourne, Humphreys makes it clear that no-one is immune to the big fix in the World Game.
