Winter in the Hamptons

Reese Davis, a young architect, falls for the daughter of a client named Jack Copeland, “The Most Hated Man in America”. Copeland was a billionaire hedge fund manager whose firm has recently failed in spectacular fashion, causing huge losses to himself and his wealthy investors, many of whom were his close friends. Although it’s not clear if he has committed any crimes, there are many who think he has, and he is the subject of a criminal investigation by the FBI, as well as numerous civil lawsuits. Desperate to recover from his losses, he has secretly associated himself with a Russian gangster in a money laundering scheme for foreign investors. Reese, infatuated with Copeland’s daughter, allows himself to be gradually drawn into Copeland’s shady dealings and soon finds himself in deep and dangerous waters.
