Synopsis: Wall Street private investigator Timothy Cone is back in this trio of novellas that plunge into the high-stakes worlds of insider trading, corporate espionage, and cold-blooded murderTimothy Cone works for an agency that provides &“financial intelligence&”—and often investigates murder and mayhem, too. In &“Run, Sally, Run!,&” Timothy Cone investigates insider leaks in a New York investment banking house, and faces the ruthless Sally Steiner, who&’s willing to do anything to succeed in a man&’s world. &“A Case of the Shorts&” opens with a bang: The CEO of a powerful Wall Street firm is gunned down in his limo. Cone is dispatched, ostensibly to uncover evidence of industrial sabotage. But what he finds is a simmering hornet&’s nest of greed, passion, and betrayal. A Chinese food corporation on the New York Stock Exchange raises red flags in &“One From Column A.&” When the elderly CEO of White Lotus employs Cone&’s company to investigate, Cone is soon tangling with kidnapping, extortion, and the Asian mafia, and it&’s hard to tell who&’s scamming whom.
