Title: a disappointing story
Review: Like many other readers, I found that this "thriller" had no thrill and no characters I was interested in. More importantly, it is also factually absurd. The plot seems to be based on a high-school-level concept of how Wall Street works (or "worked," since the book was written in the mid 1980s). If you do decide to read this, keep in mind that the plot is pure fantasy. Since Mr. Patterson has so many admirers today, I can only assume that his work has vastly improved since this first came out.
