My three favorite books whose plots concern the financial markets are:
Barbarians at the gate--Bryan Burough and John Helyar
This was also made into an excellent movie starring James Garner.
Liar's Poker--Michael Lewis
Very entertaining
Bonfire of the vanities--Tom Wolfe
This was made into a truly awful movie which mis-cast Tom Hanks. The movie sucks but the book is great.
