Hedge Fund Wives (2009)
When John and Marcy Emerson move from Chicago to New York for John's job, she is hoping this will be a fresh start for them. Surprisingly despite the bad economic times for other hedge funds and financial conglomerates, her husband has done wonders with his financial portfolio. Although Marcy agreed to quit her job and dedicate her life to being a hedge fund wife, she never thought that would entail endless parties and shopping, one-upmanship and never seeing her husband. She becomes great friends with Gigi Cohen who shows her the ropes of fitting in with the other wives. But things start to unravel for Marcy as she begins to realise things are not what they appear to be. This is an entertaining, easy read that will appeal to those seeking an insider's view into that Upper East Side wealthy set. (CG)
