Martin Stallworth is a black man trying to make it on Wall Street.
As a junk bond salesman with the investment bank Whorman Skeller
& Co., he has a chance to prove his worth when the firm plans
to launch a major high yield bond deal for a satellite
communications company called Lodestar. Because Lodestar has
important connections to the US Department of Defense, Martin and
the other junk bond salespersons know their jobs are on the line if
they don't sell the deal. Their desperation to do so leads to an
act of espionage and murder. Martin somehow finds himself as the
accused perpetrator of both. Both the cops and a gang of Chinese
thugs under the command of a rogue hedge fund trader are hot on his
trail. "Junk" combines a satirical send-up of a typical investment
bank with elements of a fast-paced thriller. While the narrative
action is riveting, Goodwin's characterizations and descriptive
writing attain the level of serious literary fiction.
