Thriller
James Conway has written the coporate thriller for our
age, and age when the power of new media and the hunder of
Wall Street converge to form a deadly entity capable of
bringing the global economy to its knees.
Drew
Havens made a killing for the Rising Fund, which, thanks to
his prognostications, was the only hedge operation to
anticipate and capitalize on the mortgage crisis of 2008.
For Havens, it’s always been about the numbers. He sees
things others can’t, from the collapse of the American real
estate market to the multibillion-dollar rise of his
ruthless and charismatic boss.
Havens is now rich
beyond his dreams, but his work at the Rising Fund has cost
him his marriage. And now it may cost him his life. It
starts with the brutal murder of his young protégé and, over
the course of six explosive days, six other brokers around
the world, each killed after executing a trade linked to the
Rising Fund.
As the violence escalates from South
Africa to São Paulo, Hong Kong to Berlin, Havens frantically
tries to construct a model that will reveal the catastrophic
event that only he can see coming—and confirm that his boss
and the Rising Fund are at the center of it. The Last
Trade is a relentlessly entertaining, adrenaline-fueled
thriller about the forces that shape our culture–and a lone
man desperate to achieve redemption— while averting a global
economic catastrophe.
