David Morisset

Blaggard Avenue: a Novel David Morisset

David Morisset's crime novel is a simple yarn set against the complex backdrop of Australia's huge funds management industry and the country's ambitions to become Asia's premier financial hub. The plot pits the naive, the gullible and the opportunistic against the ruthless, the efficient and the powerful. Fund managers, commercial lawyers, financial regulators and criminal gangs match wits in a contest that will produce more losers than winners. Morisset draws on his first-hand knowledge of the financial services sector to create a fictional world where risk and return take on extreme dimensions.
