For anyone who’s wondered why the money men who caused the
2008 banking crisis ended up running U.S. economic policy, a
novel that seems too true to be fiction . . .
On a winter’s night in 2007, a well-heeled “cultural
consultant” named Chauncey Suydam gets a call from the head
of the world’s most powerful investment bank, who says a
financial crisis is brewing, but he has a plan to insulate
Wall Street from the fallout—and keep people such as himself
out of jail. His mission for Chauncey is simple: to help funnel millions
of dollars to a certain presidential candidate preaching
hope and change, in exchange for a few Wall Street-friendly
names in the resultant administration. Yet as Chauncey wends his way amongst the nation's political
elite, he sees with greater clarity than ever how decisions
really get made—on Wall Street and in Washington. And as the
magnitude of the fix he’s perpetrating begins to sink in, he
starts to have second thoughts . . . But is it too late? At once shocking and all too plausible, Fixers is a riveting
political thriller by a master observer of finance and
politics that—despite being fiction—offers a frighteningly
reasonable explanation of what really might have happened in
2008.
