Summary: A Wonderful Financial Thriller
Review: Unlike many of the thrillers around, this digs slightly deeper into financial markets and its instruments. The novel is the story of Tom Bracewell, an economist at the largest European Bank. One day, his wife left unexpectadely and had only left a letter telling him not to follow her. After investigating the matter, his leads to a financial conspiracy involving one of the largest hedge funds, headed by a Soros-like Frenchman who is trying to manipulate the Global Markets by creating a crash in Eastern Europe. What links Bracewell's wife and this hedge fund is an interesting and catchy tale of many twists and turns, and a rhythm that brings Grisham into mind.
