When love goes wrong, death is the most final settlement of all. Morganna Hutton is a young artist, beautiful and rich. When she falls in love with the devastatingly handsome Archie Edge, she thinks he is the answer to her prayers, until the nightmares begin. But the love of money is the root of all evil, and wickedness, in glamorous disguise, stalks this compulsive book. From the grand houses of Long Island to the wilds of northwest Scotland, we follow Morganna, first in her quest for love and then for justice, as she seeks the one person who has taught her the real meaning of love--her daughter, stolen from her.
-CRITICAL ACCLAIM FOR LINDA DAVIES AND HER NOVELS-
"Enough action, financial know-how and international hokey-pokey to satisfy any reader ... we get an idea of the coolness, daring and imagination that go into successful high-voltage trading involving hundreds of millions." --The New York Times
"Linda Davies pops her debut thriller into the microwave and brings it to a near-instant boil.... THIS BOOK'S A CLASS ACT." --Glamour
"Davies, herself a former merchant banker, does a terrific job of explaining the inner workings of foreign-exchange markets and of creating a sense of the supercharged atmosphere in which the traders do their deals." --People
"A STYLISH AND VERY CONTEMPORARY British thriller about international finance.... This first novel by young, gorgeous, etc., former banker Linda Davies feels about as real as a James Bond movie, but it satisfies in exactly the same flashy, fast-moving way." --Mademoiselle
"FAST-PACED FUN ... having worked on Wall Street and in London as a merchant banker, the thirty-year-old writer makes that world sound a whole lot more exciting than most of us give it credit for being." --Chicago Tribune
"UTTERLY FASCINATING when it deals with the giddy, high-risk manipulations of foreign-exchange traders. --Entertainment Weekly
"PULSE-PUSHING YARN ... Davies lobs a female dynamo into the mostly male bastions of international finance and the government agencies that stalk those who prey on the markets.... Her writing style is mellifluous, her understanding of high-stakes currency trading authoritative yet unobtrusive, and her action scenes snap--making this A FINANCIAL THRILLER WITH BULL, NOT BEAR, WRITTEN ALL OVER IT." --Publishers Weekly
"Davies captures the lure of the [foreign-exchange] game ... LOOK FOR THIS ONE TO BE BIG." --USA Today
"THIS GRIPPING READ reveals a flashy merchant class and a moral void--akin to an upholstered pit in a gambling casino ... the game of fast-track money deals is as much an aphrodisiac as power and forbidden sex in this financial thriller." --Kirkus Reviews
