review 1: If you're a fan of Grisham I think you will enjoy this novella from David Lender. You replace the young lawyer with a young investment broker and the jaded older lawyers with jaded investment brokers. Fast paced with plenty of insider information about the working of Wall Street (it won't make you feel good about your investment portfolio) propel this story. This novella clocks in at 170 pages and reads even shorter than that due to the pacing. I enjoyed it more than I expected and will look forward to more from Mr. Lender.
review 2: I read this one rainy Sunday, all in one sitting. What a pleasure. It is a microcosm of Lender's Bull Street, a more involved story of crime and punishment on Wall Street. The Gravy Train is more a parable of good and evil, with ch
... morearacters who have depth and passion, in which a young investment banker and a retired chairman of a company befriend each other, then team up to stop a ruthless group of Wall Street sharks. You have an idea how it will turn out, but the surprises are still there, and the emotional ride and satisfaction make this a both touching and earthy reading experience. This is one to not miss. less

Didn't bother to finish it. Too much "Wall Street" behavior in the book that didn't appeal to me.

Real Wall Street drama in a suspenseful, gripping story. Great little romance, too. First rate.
