Publisher's Synopsis
A book within a book that unravels the mysteries of money, love, and power. Whose voice tells the truth about the Wall Street myths that will live in infamy? Mr. and Mrs. Lasker's reputation has spread throughout New York City. Mr. Lasker was a Wall Street legend who didn't know the meaning of failure, and even JPMorgan Chase followed his lead, while his wife was an upper-class girl with great taste and was a key player in the art world. In 1929, the year of the crash, the Lasker family's fortunes climbed to the top of the heap - so reads the novel that took the city by storm. Was Lasker, who mastered the ups and downs of the stock market, a god or a blood-sucking demon? Or is he a blood-sucking demon?
