About

You are invited to enter the world of high stakes and low morals insider trading, where winning no matter how it's done is measured by how much money you have at day's end. Join Peter Neil as he is sucked into a situation that soon spins out of control. Come experience what happens when a young man with a good heart is tempted with unimaginable wealth; when a love affair gets tangled with long-buried family secrets; when a persistent SEC agent matches wits with ruthless businesspeople who think nothing of murder of individuals and of entire countries' economies! Man in the Middle blurs the line between today's business headlines and fiction. Written by a man described as a "former Master of Wall Street" by the London Times, this novel takes you deep inside the inner working of today's capital markets, and simultaneously makes it understandable and gripping.
