I am thrilled to be welcoming Billy Hemby & Jan Hemby to Novel Kicks. They are here with the blog tour for their book, Stockbroken. 

Hidden connections often lie beneath major financial events. Stockbroken by Billy and Jan Hemby explores how a veteran market advisor begins uncovering those connections when troubling patterns emerge in the data he has spent decades studying.

Bo Parrott has built his professional life on understanding how markets behave over time. As a respected investment advisor nearing retirement, he intends to leave Wall Street behind and begin a quieter life in North Carolina with his wife, Selby. Before that transition can happen, however, certain market indicators begin to stand out in ways that concern him.

Despite widespread confidence in the economy, Bo detects familiar signals that resemble the early stages of previous financial downturns. His investigation soon intersects with a mysterious death and leads him toward a network of powerful international figures who appear prepared to profit from widespread economic panic.

What begins as analysis slowly becomes a race against time. If Bo reveals what he has discovered, he could prevent massive financial damage, but doing so may place him directly in the path of individuals determined to protect their plans.

Billy and Jan have shared an extract from Stockbroken with us today. So, grab that drink, a comfortable chair and enjoy.
