This time, a local quilter with a booming online business kicks off in her home over morning tea and it’s clear she’s been poisoned. Or more specifically, stuffed full of tree nuts to which she was intensely allergic.

Turns out the victim had outraged fellow villagers by stealing entrepreneurial ideas, accusing people of petty theft, and ditching family responsibilities. The Purcell women and their guide, retired homicide detective Saylor Reeves, gather so many murderous suspects they can’t keep them straight.

But why does their prime suspect seem so unlikely? All of the investigators’ instincts scream they’re getting it wrong but they don’t know how.

To top matters off, the community’s concern about ghost lights in the woods blooms into outright panic. If somebody can’t solve that mystery soon, a posse of paranoid pensioners with pitchforks is going to descend on whatever flits around the forest at night and make everything worse.

Things are about to boil over in beautiful Myrtle Lake.

In the not too distant past, money was simple. You might have had a bank account and a mortgage, perhaps some basic investments. Wall Street didn’t have a reputation for greed and recklessness. That all started to change in the eighties, as our financial systems became increasingly complex, moving beyond the understanding of the general public while impacting our lives in innumerable ways. The financial world began to feel like an enigma—a rogue force working against us, seemingly controlled by no one.

From an industry veteran who’s had firsthand involvement in the events that shaped modern money, How Money Became Dangerous journeys from the crime-ridden LA jewelry district to the cutthroat Salomon Brothers trading floor, from the high-stakes world of investment banking to the center of the technology boom, capturing the key deals, developments, and players that made the financial world what it is today.

The book illuminates the dark, hidden forces of Wall Street and how it has dehumanized and left behind everyday Americans. A fresh and enlightening take on how we reached this point, How Money Became Dangerous also makes the case for why Wall Street needs to be saved, if only to save ourselves.
