What We Owe

Forthcoming · Financial thriller and crime

Cover of What We Owe by Marcus Reed

Daniel Rourke knows how to find the lie in a balance sheet. His reputation—and his hedge fund—were built on it. But the investigation that made him rich also helped destroy his brother Michael’s life.

Now Michael is coming home, and Daniel is preparing a thirty-six-million-dollar bet against a hospital lender. Then his teenage niece gives him a packet of unsent prison letters. One of them changes everything he thought he knew about the money that launched his firm.

The trail leads through Clearwell Health Finance to clinics still making payments and families still waiting for the savings they lost. A rescue deal could push their claims further out of reach. Meanwhile, the market is moving against Daniel.

To expose the men profiting from the wreckage, he must investigate his own success—and ask Michael to risk the fragile life he has only just begun to rebuild.

What We Owe is a financial thriller about two brothers, the people their choices have hurt, and the distance between proving a fraud and putting a life back together.
