簡介
Thrilling tell-all of a prolific informant in the FBI’s largest insider trading investigation of a generation
Part financial crime thriller, part personal transformation story, and part redemption memoir, Wired on Wall Street: The Rise and Fall of Tipper X, One of the FBI’s Most Prolific Informants tells the riveting true story of Tom Hardin, a young hedge fund analyst turned FBI informant. Known as “Tipper X,” Tom wore a covert wire over 40 times, helping the FBI build more than 20 of the 80+ cases in Operation Perfect Hedge, the largest insider trading investigation in a generation. As the youngest professional caught in the sting, Tom navigated the psychological toll of betrayal, secrecy, and public disgrace. What followed was a powerful journey through shame, fatherhood, and ultimately, personal transformation.
In this gripping memoir, readers will explore:
Tom’s shocking first encounter with the FBI, when agents revealed chilling knowledge of his most private personal details
Tom’s high stakes game of psychological chess—wearing a wire for years including terrifying close calls
Tom’s redemptive journey from public disgrace to resilience, fatherhood, and rebuilding trust with his wife, whose love held strong when most marriages collapse
Wired on Wall Street: The Rise and Fall of Tipper X, One of the FBI’s Most Prolific Informants is a thrilling, entertaining read for anyone drawn to financial crime investigations, ethical dilemmas, and the possibility of personal growth even after deliberate choices that carry lasting consequences.
