Synopsis

When the large American financial group CSF appoints Mark Telfords Appletree Capital Management in London to handle a large world-wide fund, the champagne flows in expectation of the fees this will generate. Euphoria is short-lived however, as the temptations of unbelievable wealth stoke the self-justifying ambitions of the players, in a world where amorality can easily degenerate into criminality. All is not as it seems and Mark Telford finds himself drawn into a web of intrigue, complicated by his amorous involvement with the beautiful Compliance Officer Nancy Lindstrom. As the situation worsens Telford finds himself threatened by ambitious and ruthless executives to whom greed and duplicity is a way of life. It leads to a disastrous denouement at a lonely farmhouse in Michigan. Gavin R Dobsons first full length novel lifts the lid on how the thin line of probity can easily be breeched when unimaginable wealth is the daily tool of the workplace.

Revue de presse

The more I have reflected on this book, the more important I think it is. It will add enormously to the understanding of how mutual funds are sold at a time when financial regulation is on everyones agenda. --Bill Wilby, former Director of Equities, Oppenheimer Funds

New York International Fund Management has been the authors world for three decades and this book brings that world to life. The energy and dark humour of Dobsons prose transports the reader on a money-monster ride that hurtles to its murderous climax on a farm in Michigan. This is a book for adventurous souls whod prefer to ignore the boring disclaimers on financial products. The author has produced top quartile performance with this book. --Iain Little, Managing Director, P & C Global Wealth Managers, Zurich
