Summary

She’s the lawyer. But now she’s the one on trial.

A red canoe sits abandoned on Seymour Rock, right where the Saugatuck River meets Long Island Sound. The elegantly dressed corpse of a woman lies inside...

Nora Carleton left New York to become lead counsel at Saugatuck Associates, the world’s largest hedge fund, where her life has become slower, more predictable. That is until her colleague and friend, Helen, is brutally murdered – and she becomes the prime suspect.

In the months leading up to Helen’s death, she and Nora were investigating someone within the company who was using insider information to undercut Saugatuck’s investments. Nora knows this is somehow linked to Helen’s murder – if only she can see how.

Calling in old colleagues from the US Attorney’s office, Mafia investigator Benny Dugan and attorney Carmen Garcia, Nora must find evidence to prove her innocence – or risk being put behind bars herself...

'This is a really good mystery, expertly told and filled with the sort of detail only an insider could provide, including intrigue at the world’s largest hedge fund. Once I picked it up, I was hooked.' Joseph Finder

Fame does not guarantee talent

This book was recommended by a UK newspaper as a good summer read. Should have thought deeper about my opinion of the journalism in that paper before buying. Very pedestrian writing and cliched exchanges, and a great deal of background information that isn’t too helpful to the plot and makes the story drag. Will finish but only on principle not because of desire.

Benny’s tenacity.

I liked the characters in the book. I enjoyed the author's deep understanding of legal procedures and how investigations are conducted. The book kept me engaged throughout.
