Riassunto

Buying In is a novel of ambition and survival on Wall Street, written by an insider. Sophie Landgraf is floundering after four months at male-dominated Sterling & Sons—and things are about to get worse.

It’s October 2007; layoffs are imminent as boom times grind to a halt. Sophie teams up with her boss, attractive but secretive Ethan Pearce, and striving immigrant Vasu Kumar to advance a meritless, multibillion-dollar merger between two failing aluminum companies in a last-ditch attempt to generate fees and save their jobs.

This high-powered yet heartfelt novel is set in the headquarters of Sterling & Sons, with sojourns to Manhattan’s exclusive after-hours clubs and aluminum smelters in the Midwest and India.

Buying In tackles what it means to be a woman in a man’s world, how well we really know our colleagues, and our struggle to reconcile our personal and professional identities in today’s work-dominated world.
