Harry Broadtape : Volume Iii - the Years Alone Together

Now into his twenty-first year in investment business, Harry has lost the last of his great mentors. With Mr. Erhlich's passing, both he and his lovely partner Anna Maria Massilon must fend for themselves in the confusing aftermath following the breakdown in the international financial system. The partnership had been highly successful under the tutelage of the old man. "Dirty Harry" and the "Spider Lady", as they were now being called in international circles, inherit this billion-dollar partnership; thereby, becoming the target of every get rich scheme known to man. Now in Volume III, the couple is squarely confronted with a new order of things - a transactional Wall Street taking control from the traditional relationship-oriented Old Guard. The computer had finally been harnessed as the new means of creating massive amounts of readily saleable non-securities, securities. The birth of derivatives and a totally credit-based world economy is the arena in which they must now play.
