What's it really like to work on Wall Street? Follow Matt Connolly as he moves from entry-level gofer to head trader to federal defendant. Fresh out of college in 1987, Connolly stumbles onto a job as a clerk at JP Morgan. Through hard work, dumb luck, and a watchful eye, he learns how to trade bonds and bahts, paper and punches. After a decade Connolly is lured from JP Morgan to start a trading desk at Deutsche Bank. He keeps climbing the rungs - and avoiding the shade. But the late nights, globetrotting, and frat-house culture are taking a toll. After twenty-one years Connolly feels old for Wall Street, and he calls it a career. But not so fast. Nine years later, he's a federal defendant in the LIBOR scandal.

Ever wonder about how the federal justice system really works? Now you can experience it, really feel it, up close and personal. Welcome to Matt Connolly's world. It starts with the Libor investigation into Deutsche Bank, followed by Matt's "interview" with the FBI. Then comes his indictment and a trial in the country's most prestigious federal court, the Southern District of New York in Manhattan. This book pulls no punches. Every rabbit hole is plumbed; every lie, backstab, and shady deal is exposed. You may be surprised at which side is pulling the strings.
