I started The Domino Effect excited to read another Davis Bunn book but also wondering if it was going to be totally over my head. The world of high finance is something I know absolutely nothing about, except that there are a lot of crooks in high places. I needn't have worried. Once again, Davis Bunn has taken a hard to understand topic ripped from the headlines and made it understandable for even someone like me. Readers will find a word of caution, some sound advice, and a touch of hope within the entertaining pages of a novel.
The Domino Effect is a sobering and frightening look at today's financial world, and at those who control the world's money. It's also quite a fascinating retelling of the story of Esther, recognizable and yet different enough not to be cliched. The Domino Effect is a gripping story, hard to put down, the danger and excitement contagious. Davis Bunn has not neglected the romantic angle either, as Esther wades through difficult choices and loss, she finds a chance at love in a most unexpected place.
Fans of Davis Bunn will NOT want to miss this financial thriller, but I'll give you fair warning...you won't want to start The Domino Effect unless you have an afternoon free and clear to just read...you won't be able to do anything else once the story has you in its grasp...
