Marcus Holt runs a macro fund from a quiet floor in Mayfair, reading sovereign debt and central bank silence better than most people read headlines. For eight months, he has built a massive position against a small Southeast Asian nation whose numbers do not add up.
Then, without warning, the market turns on him.
Over seven days in London and Singapore, The Elephant follows one trader as pressure closes in from every side. His position is under attack, trust inside his walls begins to fracture, and being right about the world may not be enough to save him.
For readers who want the intelligence without the noise.
Perfect for fans of Margin Call, Liar's Poker, The Big Short, and Capital by John Lanchester.
Novella length ( 22,000 words). Reads in one sitting. Stays with you longer.
