Consider Billion Dollar Whale by Bradley Hope. Recommended by 8 sources.
“Bradley Hope stitches reporting into a cinematic account of a flamboyant 'modern Gatsby' and the billion-dollar schemes that followed. The narrative favors scene-by-scene reconstructions, interviews, and a reporter's eye for scandal, so it moves more like crime reporting than a finance textbook. Its useful part is storytelling: vivid episodes and timeline reconstruction that make complex deals feel tangible. Its limitation is repetition and transactional overload—readers seeking systematic, analytical explanations of the mechanics may find the account anecdote-heavy and unevenly paced.”
