    Description of AT BONUS TIME, NO ONE CAN HEAR YOU SCREAM

    "By my calculations – based only on rumour and speculation – Rory must have been paid over twenty million pounds since he joined the firm four years ago. But do you think it makes him happy, all that material wealth? You bet it does. It makes him as happy as a pig in shit. Wouldn't it make you?"
    No other time of year is quite the same. In the first of his Dave Hart series, David Charters lays bare all aspects of this brutal annual ritual, from the insider dealing to the backstabbing to the dubious financial advice.
    At Bonus Time… is the tale of one man's quest for his annual bonus in a world where ambition, insecurity and moral ambiguity are second nature and will grip readers from the very first sentence right up to the final shattering denouement. After all, if fear and greed can expose the fault lines in human nature, whose fault is it really if people sometimes go over the edge?

    Reviews

    "It's all here: the greed, the arrogance, the incompetence, the ruthlessness, the egomania that has driven the great captains of finance as they wreck everything around them. And it’s funny. It's very very funny."
    Michael Ridpath
