The Marketmaker follows the story of Nick Elliot, a recent hire at Dekker Ward brokerage, uncovers the unfortunate fact that the prior employee in his position was murdered. Enter suspicion, touches of romance, seemingly dodgy bosses and a kidnapping in Brazil.

It's pretty decent, reminds me of the authors other books in a way however the story was strong enough to carry itself entertainingly.

Having read three of Ridpath's financial thrillers I do feel that Paul Erdman writes a better financial thriller novel. ( )
