內容簡介

Bruce Warrick is a young, Harvard MBA with a new position for a global, financial conglomerate in New York as the portfolio manager of a Top 50 hedge fund and who suffers from narcolepsy, a condition which under emotional extremes drives him irresistibly to fall asleep. His powerful CEO compels him to join a private, hedge fund association -- the Keynes Society at the Harvard Club of New York. Bruce learns that the Keynes Society privately controls $1 trillion in assets in a dark pool -- more than the individual GDPs of all but eight nations worldwide. The trouble begins when Bruce learns that the members of the Keynes Society are trading stocks under the influence of an enigmatic Board of Governors. When Bruce is advised by his firm to engage in the illegal trading practices of the Keynes Society, he wants to become a whistle-blower. But members never exit the Keynes Society by opposing its global power without paying a high price. One day, Bruce is awakened in bed with his secretary by his wife from a narcoleptic episode during which a double-murder has been committed. His comfortable life in Greenwich, CT, is suddenly topsy-turvy. This renegade from the Keynes Society -- who has trouble differentiating the lucid hallucinations of his narcolepsy from reality -- attempts with his stunning wife, Grace, to untangle from the remembrance of luminous dreams the threads of the overwhelming evidence in the homicide charges against him.
