Client Service by Shelby Tucker
World of Finance, a massive investment company, is teetering on the point of implosion. Controlled by the elusive, brooding Baroque, it is irrevocably unraveling. But not before it can suck in the naive and amoral and destroy them. Set in the sixties, this mordant satire of international investment draws on Shelby Tucker's brief experience of Bernie Cornfeld's Investment Overseas Services, a lucrative financial confidence game, which, like WoF collapsed catastrophically. 'Client Service' could not be more entertaining or more apposite.
Shelby Tucker has travelled widely in Burma researching this book. During his time in the country he was captured by the Burmese Communist Party and interviewed most of the leaders of Burma's ethnic insurgents. He read law at Oxford University, and he is also the author of Among Insurgents: Walking Through Burma.
