Publisher's Synopsis
KILLING WALL STREET is a timely thriller about the terrible consequences of corporate greed and the unimaginable power of working class rage.
Catherine is a working class single mother whose life is spiraling out of control. Her husband has left her, her daughter thinks she is a failure, her job is in jeopardy, and her savings have evaporated after the financial crisis. When an arrogant banker whom she is dating betrays her trust and threatens to ruin her completely, she decides that she has had enough, and plots a shocking revenge against the system that has victimized her.
Special Agent Michael Sands, a rising star in the FBI, is fresh off a terrorism case when he is put in charge of an unusual investigation. Someone is killing high-profile CEOs, bankers and lawyers connected with a multi-billion dollar merger, and the killer is a step ahead of law enforcement every time. When Wall Street begins to panic at the murders, the race is on to catch the phantom killer. But as Michael investigates, he discovers that the victims were all hiding a deadly secret – one that involves a conspiracy of the highest order and which threatens to corrupt and destroy our democracy forever.
The stakes keep escalating for both Catherine and Michael as they encounter the frightening reality of financial power, and are confronted with impossible moral choices at every step.
Sanjay Sanghoee is a former investment banker from Lazard Freres and Dresdner Bank. He has also worked at Ramius Capital, a multi-billion dollar hedge fund, and currently advises hedge funds and private equity firms. He also sits on the Board of a Hispanic radio station group.
Sanjay is a regular political and business blogger for the Huffington Post , periodic contributor to FORTUNE magazine, and has thousands of followers for his articles on Facebook and Twitter. He runs his own website and page on Facebook for political and business blogs. Topics that he routinely writes about include corporate crime, Wall Street reform, political gridlock, workers’ rights, and gun control.
He is also the author of "Merger", a high-stakes financial thriller published by Forge Books in hardcover, paperback and Kindle. Chicago Tribune called the book “Timely, Gripping, and Original,” and BARRONs praised the book as a high-octane thriller.
Sanjay has an MBA from Columbia Business School and received an Award for Ethics in Business from Henry Kravis of KKR. He lives in New York City.
Sanjay Sanghoee’s second thriller, Killing Wall Street , is a tour-de-force of vigilantism, murder, corporate intrigue, soap opera, action, and methodical police work… the two characters have different arcs that head inexorably towards each other, and when they collide the payoff is exciting and satisfying.
