Summary: Simplistic, poorly written, can't-suspend-belief-enough plot
Review: All these reviews must have been written by Frey himself.

These are poorly written books, cardboard characters.

Some good info on insider trading.

Otherwise, simplistic.

The plot is not very deep, to say the least

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: One of Frey's better books
Review: Book starts out wit Jay West the main Charater striving a more prestges job wit better money talkin bonus in the seven figures. After jay starts right away things are a little strange around the trading desk and as time goes on people are not as they apeear to be and Jay is being set to take a big fall.I thought this was a good book it traveled in many directions but the author does a good job bringing it all together witha pretty good ending.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The Insider opens the door
Review: Frey continues to open the inner workings of the most secretive industry in the world to the average reader. I enjoy his simple yet thrilling joy rides. Please keep them coming.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Frey's stuff is great -
Review: Frey continues to put out great books. He has a solid ability to develop the financial framework for his novels in a simple easy to understand manner along with the ability to deliver strong characters. I love the way to puts women is such a favorable light. I look forward to the next one. If his publisher was smart he would lock Frey up for the next 5 books! ASA rules

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Frey is not overvalued!
Review: Frey does a great job again. Unlike most authors in the financial services space, Frey delivers great books from the Hedge fund, and Investment Banking world. When is the Venture story coming?

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Frey Continues To Close The Deal!
Review: Frey has returned to his roots and it shows. The book is fast-paced and well thought out, like a good I-banker. For those of us in the world of high finance, he is Grisham. When will we see the movies?

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Enjoyable but the formula is growing thin
Review: Having read Frey's other books I feel he has gone back to the well one time too many. His lead character is basically the same in all his novels. I enjoy reading them but here's hoping he tries something a little more original next time around.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: I'm a Frey fan and liked this book.
Review: Having read several of Frey's book, I ordered this one based on this site's description. I wasn't disappointed. The book is perhaps far-fetched, like many of the thrillers today, but entertaining. A quick, enjoyable read!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Suspense, thrilling and can't put down...
Review: I don't care what other's say, but I find this book very good. Actually I have to stop now and then so I could just stretch it out and not finish it right away, however, this is my first book I read and surely will not be the last. I'm not surprise if this will turn into a movie or tv-movie. More power to you Mr.Frey.
