Synopsis "The Bottom of the Sky (in English)"

The Bottom of the Sky is an aching rags-to-riches family saga that surges from rural squalor into the opulent power chambers of Wall Street and Silicon Valley. The story contrasts the 30-year struggles of an abused sister and brother who seek to reclaim themselves from their abhorrent past. One remains at home, trapped by desecration and addiction. The other escapes and uses uncanny genius and unrelenting ambition to amass staggering wealth. Greed and betrayal power a tense plot involving the FBI, the SEC, and billions of dollars fleeced from brokerage customers and shareholders, while isolation and envy lead to deadly confrontations back home. It is a riveting tale of two disparate worlds joined by one desperate man and his ultimate redemption. This poignant family journey watches dispossessed children become women and men, rising and buckling from their condemnable legacy, craving what they cannot have, loving who they must, hating what they cannot reconcile. The novel deals head on with childhood shame, promiscuity, prejudice and Wall Street's rape of Main Street. It is a tale of genius, madness, and violence; one of extraordinary sacrifice and discovery. It is a journey of hidden destiny. The Bottom of the Sky is a debut novel written by a native Montanan and former senior executive of a Wall Street giant. It is taut and heart-wrenching...and sometimes funny. It is tender and raw and surprising until the shocking end.
