Great book

Tom Bernard does a great job with this novel, especially considering it is his first.

Buy it. Read it. Enjoy it.

Bernard's intimate knowledge of wall street provides a realistic framework for this fast paced thriller. The story is engaging and enjoyable, so much so, that I read the book in one sitting.
