Running Naked

Based on a True Story: If ever there was a man who could turn shit into vanilla; spin adversity into advantage, it is Rex Roberts, a financial alchemist now at the top of his game. But recently, he's hit the Death Valley of dry spells. The sheriff is serving him foreclosure papers' his beloved Mercedes is being repo'd, and his wife who's come to realize she didn't grab the brass ring wants a divorce. Scraping the bottom of the barrel, he finds a deal still in utero, one even the bottom feeders won't nibble on. Like Rex, John Z DeLorean needs to bail himself out of foreclosure and crippling legal bills. They are two desperate men, fighting back to back, not just for their financial survival, but to win and beat the bastards. Rex soon finds himself in the locked ward of a psychiatric hospital where his now separated wife and shrink want him to stay indefinitely. Will Rex provide his friend with a magnificent comeback, and incidentally save his own hide as well?

"A story of immense potential and rare form that captures both humor and heart. It is a real slice of life. Comic, ironic, poignant. One of those books that you never want to end!" Can't wait to see the movie.

5Fantastic  Feb 10, 2009
perceptions of the rich and crazy are a far cry from reality, the author give us a front row seat to the wild highs and lows of Rex Roberts. I could not put the book down and I can not wait to see how it plays in the theatre.

5Can't wait to see the movie!  Oct 30, 2008
This is absolutely one of the funniest books I have ever read. Not only did I laugh myself silly but I cried at the end. I can't say enough about this book. I loved it.

5Hilarious!  Oct 30, 2008
"Running Naked," based on a true period of the author's own life, is both excruciatingly honest and falling-down funny. There were moments when I was reading it that I wanted to cry and laugh at the same time. Anyone who wants a look inside the minds and personalities of the people behind high finance, be warned: you will get more than you bargained for. And you will enjoy every minute!
