About the book:

For fans of Percival Everett, Michael Lewis, and Industry, a hotshot hedge fund analyst must risk everything to save his job—and his life—in this darkly funny satire about ambition, power, and the corrupting influence of the almighty dollar.

“With Leverage, Amran Gowani blows off the facade of high finance, revealing a world that is even more depraved than most think, where 'profits over people' is the rule of the day. Armed with years of Wall Street experience, the skill to weave a compulsively readable tale, and prose that'll make you go 'WHOA!', Gowani reminds us that the most valuable commodity on earth isn't oil or gold, but the unshakable spirit to do better and be better which dwells within us all. A bell-ringing debut with high ROI."

—Mateo Askaripour, New York Times bestselling author of Black Buck

“Leverageis a wild ride that is, at various turns, funny, dark, and heart-wrenching. This thriller will make you burn through the pages and revel in twist after twist. By the end, you’ll leave satisfied, entertained, and in possession of a far greater understanding of both the Wu-Tang Clan's discography and what can happen when capitalistic greed is stretched to its furthest extremes.”

—Andrew Boryga, author ofVictim

“No one else is doing what Gowani is. He’s smarter than funny people, funnier than smart people, and has more heart and edge than both.”

—Dennard Dayle, author ofHow to Dodge a Cannonball
