A History of Private Life by Paul Veyne
Maureen O'Neal is a one-of-a-kind Wall Street analyst, tough, incorruptible, and feared by corporate executives with something to hide. Her personal life is another story. So when her childhood buddy Gregory Overman phones and asks for help, she's on the next flight to Florida. Once there, she's astonished to learn he wants her to vouch for Roland Pettigrew, a sleazy billionaire-philanthropist known as Midas Man. Surprise turns to disaster when Pettigrew's ex-wife is found murdered under circumstances that make Maureen and Gregory suspects. In this story of money, murder, and postponed romance, these two old friends must uncover the secrets of the Pettigrew empire and grapple with the scars that have kept them apart for years.
