Heavily plotted contemporary satire, skewering everything from the arcane rules of social register types, casually hypocritical financial heavyweights, and eager educators, in the vein of the author's previous novel, CAMPUSLAND.
Previously the author of the best-seller Campusland (currently in development for television), SCOTT JOHNSTON grew up in Manhattan and graduated from Yale, where he later taught as an adjunct. He worked on Wall Street, including a stint in Hong Kong, and ran a quantitative hedge fund. More recently, Johnston shifted gears and co-founded and subsequently sold two tech startups. He lives in Charlottesville, Virginia and blogs frequently about educational issues at the Naked Dollar.
