STORYBOOK MARRIAGE DESTROYED BY THE QUEST TO BECOME SUPER RICH.
Sandra Martini thought she had it all, a storybook marriage, two loving children, a meaningful career in healthcare, and lots of corporate expense account goodies.
But all hell broke loose when husband Victor met Franklin Ryman, a wealthy, tarnished member of Wall Street's dark-side dealmakers, known as the lunatic fringe.
The morally bankrupt Ryman guaranteed Victor no experience was necessary to become a Wall Street zillionaire, other than Follow the Leader.
Smitten with the notion of becoming filthy rich at the age of 37, Victor waved goodbye to his carefully cultivated career on Madison Avenue to launch a questionable IPO (Initial Public Offering) with Ryman.
Reluctantly, Sandra agreed to join the love of her life on a breath-taking roller-coaster through a seamy side of Wall Street that professional dealmakers deny exists. A world where the only color that matters is green.
When the roller coaster stops, Victor and Sandra are financially and morally bankrupt, their marriage is in shambles, and Victor contemplates a bizarre version of insurance suicide to make amends.
