Marked To Fail: A Mossad Spy Thriller About a Gripping Race to Expose a Financial Scandal That Could Fund a War. Based on Real Events.

By Grossman, Max

First published 2026

A fictionalised retelling of the Wirecard scandal, Marked To Fail fuses financial thriller with geopolitical espionage to expose the hidden machinery behind a billion-dollar lie. When a delivery boy is killed in New York, no one imagines the death will matter. But buried inside a routine police report is a detail that points to something far larger: a London fintech darling quietly routing millions of everyday payments through a shadow network tied to Iran’s missile program and Hezbollah. Mossad sends James Ashford, known inside the Office as the Actor — a director-general’s special operative with a personal stake in the hunt. As the investigation deepens, Ashford gathers an unlikely circle of allies: a disillusioned lawyer, a conflicted whistleblower, a journalist chasing the story of her life, and a rising tech executive who begins to suspect that the company she helped build is not what it claims to be. And what Ashford uncovers is not just terrorist financing, but a financial machine built to move money, erase truth, and turn political power invisible.
