If he hadn't met Monica he would probably have ended up either dead or in rehab. But Jimmy was as lucky in love as he was at betting on dodgy derivatives so instead of burning out his star just burned brighter than ever.

And when the global financial crisis hit Jimmy discovers that anyone can handle success. It's how you handle failure that really matters.Read More

    A sharp and funny novel about greed in the contemporary economic climate, Meltdown is the latest novel from well-recognised British writer Ben Elton, the provocative author of Popcorn. Elton has had his finger on the pulse of British society for over a decade; producing books that reflect the times and this is no different. A warning that success should never be taken for granted, the novel follows the trials and tribulations of City trader Jimmy Corby, who having scarcely survived his own work hard, party harder lifestyle, is brought to his knees by financial crisis.
