TRADING GAME (PB)

An outrageous, white-knuckle journey to the dark heart of an intoxicating world - from someone who survived the trading game and then blew it all wide open. As a kid, kicking broken footballs in the shadow of Canary Wharf, Gary wanted something better and bigger. Then he won a competition run by a bank - 'The Trading Game' – and became the youngest trader in the whole city. His colleagues were dysfunctional maths geniuses, overfed public schoolboys and borderline psychopaths, who began to feel like family. And the easiest way to make money was betting on millions of people becoming poorer.
