Stephen Grant

Fiction. Intrigue, romance, reversals of fortune, and the question of the good life are at the heart of SPANISH LIGHT, Stephen Grant's enthralling new novel about the 2008 global economic crisis and its aftermath. Set in England and Spain, it is the extraordinary tale of a renegade London banker whose quest for personal redemption takes an unexpected turn when he falls for a Spanish philosopher-activist and finds himself embroiled in an ostensibly unwinnable battle against a corrupt government.

"A tale of... love among the financial ruins and] the need to make a difference... Grant laces his narrative with big issues--the rights of workers and refugees, workaday ethics, avarice and redistribution..."--Kirkus Reviews

"SPANISH LIGHT is an ingenious and gripping hi-jinks finance and legal thriller pulled straight from the headlines of the global economic meltdown. It's not too far-fetched to hope that this book make it into the room where folks discuss Booker prize candidates; and if that were never to happen, then there is the hope that some Hollywood filmmaker adopt the novel for a blockbuster featuring Daniel Craig in the lead."--Joseph G. Peterson

"Finally, after dozens of nonfiction books about the Crash of 2008, Stephen Grant gives us a fictionalized account full of romance and intrigue. SPANISH LIGHT tells of a London banker who uses his ill-gotten gains to help laid-off Spanish miners. It's a fast-paced, up-close-and-personal look at this economic disaster."--James Vescovi
