The Ego's Nest cover

In The Ego's Nest, Dave Hart fakes his death and navigates a chaotic world to reclaim love and revive his financial empire amidst moral dilemmas.

In The Ego's Nest, readers are reintroduced to Dave Hart, the charismatic yet morally ambiguous leader of the fallen financial giant, Grossbank. Having faked his own death, Dave finds himself in a surreal, opium-infused haze in Cambodia, where he has amassed a fortune from the bank's collapse. Yet, amidst the chaos and indulgence, his heart yearns for one thing: to return to London and win back Laura 'Two Livers' Mackay, a woman of remarkable intelligence and undeniable allure. This quest for love sets the stage for a whirlwind adventure.

As Dave navigates the complexities of resurrecting his life and the financial world, he encounters a host of shady characters eager to invest in his resurrection. The stakes are high, and the path is fraught with challenges as he grapples with the moral ambiguities of his past decisions. The narrative unfolds with sharp wit and biting satire, reflecting the current public sentiment towards the financial sector. Through Dave's escapades, the reader is drawn into a darkly humorous exploration of ethics in a world where success often comes at a steep price.

The Ego's Nest is not just a tale of one man's journey; it is a commentary on the excesses and absurdities of the financial industry. With its fast-paced plot and engaging characters, this book promises to entertain while provoking thought about the nature of success, morality, and the lengths one will go to reclaim love and identity.
