Synopsis

In Eat What You Kill by Ted Scofield, Evan Stoess is a struggling young Wall Street analyst obsessed with fortune and fame. A trailer park kid who attended an exclusive prep school through a lucky twist of fate, Evan's unusual past leaves him an alien in both worlds, an outsider who desperately wants to belong. When a small stock he discovers becomes an overnight sensation, he is poised to make millions and land the girl of his dreams, but disaster strikes and he loses everything. Two years later a mysterious firm offers Evan a chance for redemption, and he jumps at the opportunity. His new job is to short stocks--to bet against the market. But when the stock goes up and he finds himself on the brink of ruin once again, another option presents itself: murder. At a moral crossroads, Evan must ask himself--how far will a man go for money and vengeance?

Review:

Ted Scofield's debut novel EAT WHAT YOU KILL features a villainous hero who gives Gordon Gekko a run for his hedge fund. . . . You won't predict the lengths he'll go to to reach the top on Wall Street--or the bottom. Scofield keeps the pages turning in this dark and twisty tale. --New York Times bestselling author Lisa Scottoline Reads like a bull market rally. "Eat What You Kill is smart, fast, savvy, and will keep you going past the final bell. --Andrew Gross, bestselling author of EYES WIDE OPEN and THE DARK TIDE. A hot new book from a hot new talent in the financial thriller genre. Read it!" --Stephen Frey, New York Times bestselling author of The Power Broker. Eat What You Kill is a dangerously delightful book that makes you wonder if it could happen...or already has. After all, on Wall Street, anything is possible --Alexandra Lebenthal, Fortune magazine's Queen of Wall Street and author of The Recessionistas. Ted Scofield has done what I didn't think possible, deliver a new take on the ugly consequences of the modern-day Faustian bargain. I couldn't put this one down. Elizabeth MacDonald, anchor, FOX Business --Various
