J. T. Marlin is the name of a stock brokerage that operates at the edge of the law. Its young and aggressive brokers sell their unknowing clients bundles of stocks that no one would have ever bought otherwise. In exchange they receive extraordinary gifts: villas, Ferraris, and jewels. Seth Davis, a nineteen-year-old expelled from college, wants two things out of life: a million dollars and the eternal respect of his father, who has never been satisfied with him. Working for J. T. Marlin is his only chance for getting these things quickly.
