Past Reads Saturday – The Widow of Wall Street by Randy Susan Meyers
Goodreads Description
What’s real in a marriage built on sand and how do you abandon a man you’ve loved since the age of fifteen?
Phoebe sees the fire in Jake Pierce’s belly from the moment they meet as teenagers in Brooklyn. Eventually he creates a financial dynasty and she trusts him without hesitation—unaware his hunger for success hides a dark talent for deception.
When Phoebe learns—along with the rest of the world—that her husband’s triumphs are the result of an elaborate Ponzi scheme her world unravels. Lies underpin her life and marriage. As Jake’s crime is uncovered, the world obsesses about Phoebe. Did she know her life was fabricated by fraud? Did she partner with her husband in hustling billions from pensioners, charities, and CEOs? Was she his accomplice in stealing from their family and neighbors?
Debate rages as to whether love and loyalty blinded her to his crimes or if she chose to live in denial. While Jake is trapped in the web of his own deceit, Phoebe is faced with an unbearable choice. Her children refuse to see her if she remains at their father’s side, but abandoning Jake, a man she’s known since childhood, feels cruel and impossible.
From Brooklyn to Greenwich to Manhattan, from penthouse to prison, with tragic consequences rippling well beyond Wall Street, The Widow of Wall Street exposes a woman struggling to redefine her life and marriage as everything she thought she knew crumbles around her.
My Thoughts
I have read or listened to everything Randy Susan Meyers has written. I have enjoyed all of her books. The Widow of Wall Street reminded me of the Madoff case in that it follows a husband who is exposed for a Ponzi scheme and the wife’s life literally falls apart around her. It was very good and the audio is narrated by Susan Bennett who I enjoy listening to. Due to be published February 1 of next year Randy Susan Meyers and M.J. Rose have a book coming out called The Fashion Orphans. What could be better than a book by two authors one loves! Can’t wait to read it!
