Roaring Trade

By Steve Thompson

Fast-paced and astute, Roaring Trade exposes just how far people go for the highest-risk jobs in the City.

Pressure is mounting on the bond traders' floor. Millions stand to be lost or won. Jess is playing FTSE with the clients, PJ’s practising his poker face for bonus day, and superstar trader Donny’s in danger of losing his crown to the new boy. Could they be headed for more than a financial crisis?

'the liveliest satire on the City since Caryl Churchill's Serious Money' The Times

'Thompson knows the value of a strong plot, and fast pace... he brings the trading floor to dramatic life' Telegraph
