Renowned money manager Johnny Long is back, and this time the stakes are leveraged like never before. This third offering in David Mallach’s critically-acclaimed series of “financial thrillers” takes us into the cut-throat world of options trading and clandestine hedge funds to expose the men behind the curtains who are changing our world faster than we know. In this novel, Johnny Long finds himself in the middle of two worlds colliding as he tiptoes along the fault line of human nature where money meets morality. Caught up in a high-stakes investing contest among the world’s most powerful investors, Johnny Long must come precariously close to the breaking point where the majestic façades decorating “progress,” “knowledge,” “wealth,” and “philanthropy” crumble to reveal the true modes of power and resistance are lurking behind.
When one of Johnny’s clients -- a brilliant but socially-inept genetic scientist -- announces that he has discovered a direct link between doing good and living longer, he unwittingly allies himself with a sinister group seeking to acquire the doctor’s research by any means necessary. Their ultimate goal is to develop a genetically-engineered end to moral decision making and the choice for free will that defines what is most quintessentially human. And they will stop at nothing.
How far is Johnny willing to go to preserve individual freedom and free will? Can he redesign his options strategy to compete with the most successful, most sophisticated investors in the world? Pushing wealth to its moral limits, Johnny Long works against the clock to endow his client with both money and freedom – the money to continue his ground-breaking research unfettered and the freedom from the global underground network that seems to have its tentacles around everything.
Running With The Analysts is an overview of option investing at its finest wrapped within a fictional tale of what is… and what can be life’s richest ambiguity.
