I enjoy reading these types of books as the detail afforded by hindsight is wonderful. To see the patterns and knock on ramifications of decisions made long in the past and how they would come to haunt the present is nothing but great reading.

Easily my favourite novel. A fantastic read that recounted the GFC in a way that was tense and thrilling. Personally it amazes me still that no regulation was active in policing Wall Street. looking forward to reading more of your work
