Down & Out in Manhattan Maria Fernandez

Ivan Boesky once said, "There's a sucker in every deal, and if you're in the deal, and you don't know who the sucker is, chances are it's you." In this financial thriller, Jack Cole finds this out the hard way. He is an analyst at an investment banking company stuck in a stalled career until a seemingly chance meeting with the owner of his firm propels him to the center of a high stakes conspiracy. Jack sees all his dreams come true and then loses everything. He embarks on an odyssey of self-discovery, which keelhauls him through the seedy underbelly of New York City, and renders him homeless, before ultimately granting him redemption.

Crowe, Pulitzer Prize winning author of America for Sale "It will keep you hanging on until the very last page!" -Bauman Book Reviews "A cross between classic noir and the movie, Wall Street." -Jodi McClure, author of Homebound
