Banking on DeathBooktrack Soundtrack Edition
“In finance as in murder, you must always look at who stands to gain from the deficit.”
— From the novel
John Putnam Thatcher, Senior Vice President of Manhattan’s elite Sloan Guaranty Trust, expects banking to be a matter of ledgers, interest rates, and orderly investment portfolios. But when an unauthorized request for an advance against a trust fund arrives, Thatcher begins looking deeper into the Schneider family trust.
When the missing heir is suddenly found murdered and corporate intrigue at Schneider Manufacturing heats up, Thatcher finds himself thrust into the role of Wall Street detective. Armed with financial acumen and dry wit, he must unravel corporate balance sheets and family greed to uncover the killer.
