Rogers has the gambler's gifts - a titanic brain, an uncanny ability to read people, and a risk-taker's daring. But his life needs direction. Everything changes the summer he is invited into the boisterous environment of an investment bank's trading room, and to a gambling hall dive where he immediately captures the attention of his co-workers with his card-playing skills. An intriguing look at human aspiration and the interplay of honour, greed, fear, and individuality, this novel reveals a time when a new generation upended the status quo on Wall Street and forever changed investing.
