About The Last Hamilton
3:23 a.m. A subway train. The screech of the emergency lever being pulled. Hellish silence. When Elizabeth Walker, the last heir of the Alexander Hamilton line, is tragically killed by a subway train in New York, foul play is immediately suspected. Elizabeth had been terrified, frantic, and manic during her last days, running mysterious errands, searching for a strange antique key, and sending cryptic messages to her best friend, Sarah Brockman. The morning after Elizabeth’s death, a box of tattered documents lands on Sarah’s doorstep, confirming her suspicions about Elizabeth’s strange behavior and shocking death.

Attempts to Corner the Gold Market
Ah, finance. Never boring. Especially when it’s brilliant, brash, and greedy. Enter the world of “cornering a market.”
Cornering the market means acquiring enough shares of a particular security type or holding a significant commodity position to be able to manipulate its price.
The most direct strategy for attempting a corner is to buy a large percentage of the available commodity offered for sale and hoard it.
