Description:

The fourth of David Charters' hilarious City satires, Where Egos Dare charts Dave Hart's navigation through the 2008 credit crunch and the ensuing economic crisis as Chairman of Grossbank. When the company loses billions of pounds thanks to a rogue trader, can Dave Hart take on a stockmarket in the middle of financial meltdown and win?

Synopsis:

Dave Hart is an investment banker. He runs Grossbank, the world's greatest bank. He does everything a good banker should do - from little white lines to little blue pills - and gets paid millions for it. So why has everything gone so flat? After cheating death in a horrific plane crash, Dave finds himself the media's latest hero. But not being able to put a foot wrong is finally starting to grate. He's bored - until a rogue trader is discovered at the bank, and the company faces losses that could rock the entire banking industry. Dave is confronted by his biggest challenge yet - he must take on the stockmarket in the middle of financial meltdown and win. But time seems to have run out for our anti-hero. Or has it?
