Synopsis

Plot

You are Stephen Bradley, an American academic working at Oxford University. You have discovered that you have been swindled out of $250,000. You bought shares in an oil company which then failed, leaving you with worthless shares.

Harvey Metcalfe, the villain whose shares you bought at an artificially boosted price, is laughing all the way to his Swiss bank. The police regret that they will be unable to nail him or recover your money. You are determined to get your money back, by fair means or foul, but you need help. You are told that from the moment you start the game a tally will be kept of all your financial losses and gains, however small.
