Mystery | Mystery Woman Sleuth
On an early morning in November, a couple boards a private
plane bound for Geneva, flying into a storm. Soon after, it
simply drops off the radar, and its wreckage is later
uncovered in the Alps. Among the disappeared is Matthew
Werner, a banking insider at Swiss United, a powerful
offshore bank. His young widow, Annabel, is left grappling
with the secrets he left behind, including an encrypted
laptop and a shady client list. As she begins a desperate
search for answers, she determines that Matthew's death was
no accident, and that she is now in the crosshairs of his
powerful enemies. Meanwhile, ambitious society journalist Marina Tourneau has
finally landed at the top. Now that she's engaged to Grant
Ellis, she will stop writing about powerful families and
finally be a part of one. Her entry into the upper echelons
of New York's social scene is more appealing than any
article could ever be, but, after the death of her mentor,
she agrees to dig into one more story. While looking into
Swiss United, Marina uncovers information that implicates
some of the most powerful men in the financial world,
including a few who are too close to home. The story could
also be the answer to Annabel's heartbreaking search--if
Marina chooses to publish it. The Banker's Wife is both a high-stakes thriller and
an inside look at the personal lives in the intriguing world
of finance, introducing Cristina Alger as a powerful new
voice in the genre.
