This book is the dark story of Martin, whose obsession with making money at all costs becomes his eventual downfall.  It is well-written and easy to read, as the story flows from the past to the present and back again in order to explain how Martin's world became the pursuit of money.  Martin's relationship with his girlfriend Veronika is also explored in the context of Martin's obsession.  It enters the dark recesses of Martin's mind, as well as his dreams, so you are transported through the action from his almost-psychopathic frame of mind.  There is a lot of crime drama in this book, and it reads very quickly.  All in all, it is a very interesting look at a person who has allowed himself to become entirely corrupted by the pursuit of money.
