Got Leverage?

Thank you to NetGalley, the author and publisher for trusting me with an ARC of Leverage by Amran Gowani. This book is the first book by this author and, I hope, will not be his last. This book tells the story of Ali Jafar, a manager at a hedge fund, who has just lost $300 million on an investment. Rather than fire him, his boss and owner of the fund, Paul, threatens him with insider trading (false) and gives him a few months to make up the loss. A college friend, Damon, gives him a "tip" to help replace some of the loss and also gives him a contact who can give him more insider information.

This book is a page-turner filled with plenty of twists and turns especially if you can keep up with the financial lingo. Clearly, Mr. Gowani has a lot of experience in the hedge fund field making this book very realistic. I highly recommend and look forward to more from this author.

In the meantime, keep turning those pages....
