Great Financial Novel

As an investment banker I enjoy reading novels built around finance intrigue vs. lawyers, doctors or policemen. This is a very good book of a recent college grad who after the death of his mother is given an opportunity to be a hedge fund trader. In a year he goes from not wanting the job to being one of the top traders and all the internal office politics that develop.But this is no ordinary job and he wasn't recruited based upon his intelligence. The novel starts with two deaths of people who do business with the hedge fund as well as the death of his mother. Morris weaves many different plot lines like the death of his mother, his family life and a relationship with the attorney of the hedge fund, his love life involving the daughter of the attorney, and his conflicted views of wealth. Overlapping these story lines is a great "whodunit" as the new trader fights to learn a business and duck clues that may involve him in an elaborate scheme. I strongly recommend this book for anyone interested in a good murder mystery built around a financial world background.

The Man in The Middlle

As a Wall Street pro, I was surpised at the accuracy of the financial details, This book kept my interest the whole way through with its wonderful but realistic fiction. I look forward to finding another Ken Morris book to read!

Wall Street from the Inside

After reading in the Wall Street Journal about the thiefs and thugs who infest Wall Street and are heads of major corporations, you'll find this book scary and all too believable. With fast action throughout and unpredictable plot twists, it's a natural for a thriller movie. It makes you want to cry out "Don't go there" to the hero. I stayed up late at night on this one.

The John Grisham of financial thrillers

I don't know a thing about hedge funds, stock shares, or the capital markets - but, I loved this book and couldn't put it down. Through the young character's eyes, I got an inside look at a massively corrupt company and traveled with him as he uncovered their vices and struggled to come out on top. I could NOT put this book down. This IS "The Firm" of financial thrillers.

Man in the Middle

Man in the Middle is a fast paced book with multiple themes. The story revolves around the inside view of Wall Street - how large sums of money are made (and lost). The author is a vetern of Wall Street, having worked at several firms and then walking away form it all at the age of 39. His professional insights are very evident throughout the book.While the scenes are set around a hedge fund, the action involves money laudering, drug cartels, and suspenseful violence -- vivid enough to keep you reading hour after hour. The good guy in the story is an SEC investigator who tries to overcome multiple roadblocks in an effort to root out many levels of corruption.This well written book is destined to be a hit movie.
