About
Cash-strapped writer India Palmer is visiting wealthy friends in Maine when she meets Win Johns, a swaggering and intellectually bored trader of mortgage-backed securities. Charmed by India's intelligence, humor, and inquisitive nature and aware of her near-desperate financial situation, Win proposes to make her a world-class bond trader in eighteen months. India embarks on a raucous ride to the top of the income chain, leveraging herself with crumbling real estate, never once looking back..or does she?
