Black Fridays

Sometimes a man can be redeemed. But not in the way he expects.

Jason Stafford is a former Wall Street hotshot who made some bad moves, paid the price with two years in prison, and is now trying to put his life back together. He€s unemployable, until an investment firm asks him to look into possible problems left by a junior trader who died recently in an accident. What he discovers is big €“ there are problems, all right, the kind that get you killed.

But it€s not his only concern. Stafford has another quest as well: to reclaim his five-year-old son, €œthe Kid,€ from his unstable ex-wife, and then learn just what it means to make a life with him. The things Stafford discovers about himself in the process are every bit as gripping as his investigation, and when the two threads of his life come together €“ the results are unforgettable.

Black Fridays marks the arrival of a remarkable new writer.
