The Twain Maxim - A Perfect Fathers Day Gift
Clem Chambers is the CEO of ADVFN, Europe’s number one stocks and shares website. He is also an amazing writer, in the mould of Grisham.
His latest book, The Twain Maxim, is the perfect Fathers Day Gift. Trust me, about a week in, Your Dad will start to really thank you. It’s that good!
The story centres around a Congolese mine and it’s dodgy promoter, Baz Mycock. The mine is a scam and Mycock is out to fleece as many as he can in the stocks and shares trading world. The hero of the story, Jim, is a city whizzkid, with uncanny and unrivalled trading skills. He is so good at this that money is no longer an object to him.
He buys into Mycock’s mine, but his suspicious broker wants a closer look and promptly disappears. Jim has no choice but to investigate further. This leads to heaps of danger, adventure and some pretty scary scenarios. Clem Chambers experiences in the real world help to turn this work of fiction into something very tangible. Some of the trading described in the book is riveting in itself.
Along with other leading characters like “Man bites Dog” - a congolese child soldier, a pygmie tribe, a proper-hard love interest and the mighty Doombahs, this is one major page turner.
(What’s a doombah? I’m not telling, read the book….they are very, very cool though!)
This book is so good, I am surprised Hollywood hasn’t come calling. It has it all - danger, suspense, humour, great characters and a perfect ending.
Get your Dad a copy at amazon, it’s a belter!
