Russell Campbell schreibt mit einem feinen Sinn für Ironie über Gier und Angst, die nicht nur die Finanzmärkte, sondern auch menschliche Motivationen antreiben. Sein Werk erforscht die feine Linie zwischen Legalität und unlauteren Praktiken und hinterfragt, wie weit Einzelpersonen gehen würden, wenn sie glaubten, unentdeckt zu bleiben. Campbell schöpft aus seinen Erfahrungen, verankert seine Erzählungen in der schottischen Landschaft und enthüllt dabei universelle Wahrheiten über die menschliche Natur.
