“ Honey, everybody lies on Wall Street. It’s nothing personal.” - M.G. Crisci, Author, Protagonist
This Little Piggy
AN INSIDER’S VIVID PORTRAIT OF WALL STREET’S DESPERATE “LUNATIC FRINGE.”
Michael Martini was a successful Madison Avenue executive with a storybook marriage, and an irrational desire to become insanely rich by the age of 40.
Enter Franklin Ryman, a morally bankrupt Wall Street entrepreneur supported by a group of inherently evil advisors. Ryman sold Martini the snake oil: “Just follow my lead; no experience necessary to become America’s next zillionaire.”
Soon, Martini and Franklin and were up to their eyeballs in questionable public financings, SEC investigations, ill-structured corporate acquisitions, and emasculating boardroom power struggles.
When the dust settled, there were no winners, only a collection of pathetic losers.
EDITORIAL REVIEWS
A cautionary tale about chasing miles of money on Wall Street—or even achieving it—in a way that feels completely refreshing…and disturbing.
- Independent Book Review
This Little Piggy is an epic human tragedy in the classic sense, and it is exquisite.
