The Money Makers

Summary: Grisham goes business
Review: I just read this book. I loved it. I love Grisham (although his latest books are average) and one could say that Grisham is to lawyers what Binham is to businessmen.

But don't fear, you dont have to be a trader or business expert to enjoy this book. You will learn a bunch about those high-adrenalin jobs and find yourself swept into an exciting money race. The son with the most money gets Daddy's big fortune. Who will get it and how? Watch them rise and fall and rise again.

I also enjoyed the little romance bits and the moral dilemna. You just can help beeing hooked to the characters and will despise some of their acts. Highly fun and entertaining. Give yourself a threat and read this book. I just ordered his second book and will check my mailbox every day from now on :)

Summary: Fantastic Read!
Review: I picked this book up in a London bookshop when I finished the one I'd brought with me. It was one of the best selections I ever made. Bingham weaves a heck of a tale. There are all the elements one needs for a great suspense novel. The characters are complex and the ending a surprise. As an added bonus, if you have any interest at all in business and/or the financial industry you will get solid explorations of elements surrounding both areas.

Summary: The greatest winner takes all book ever written
Review: This is honestly one of the best books I have ever read. The plot is sensational, basically a rich tycoon dies and to inherit his vast fortune his three sons who have basically just been spoilt rich kids and never worked a day in their lives must earn at least one million pounds from nothing in three years. Only one of them can inherit the money, winner takes all. Meanwhile their sister who has been left a place on a secretarial course from her father's will must look after their mother who has become a vegetable through shock of the will's contents so all the moral questions of diverting funds they have made to help their struggling sister are tackled along with morals in making money.

Each brother is completely different personality wise and you actually learn a fair bit about running businesses, share trading and everything else along the way. You get addicted to these characters and will not be able to put this book down. It is a riveting read. I honestly hadn't heard of Harry Bingham as an author before this but he's up there with James Patterson, Dean Koontz and other masters of thrillers.
