The wicked widow : a wicked city novel / Beatriz Williams.

Williams, Beatriz, (author.).

Summary:

Two intertwined stories--one set in 1924 and featuring Geneva "Gin" Kelly and another set in 1998 featuring Ella Dommerich--follow these two determined women as they uncover long-buried secrets and unsettle New York City's richest families.
June 1925. Flapper Geneva "Gin" Kelly prepares for respectable marriage to Oliver Anson Marshall, a steadfast Prohibition agent who happens to hail from one of New York's most distinguished families. When the head of the notorious East Coast rum-running racket-- Anson's mortal enemy-- turns up murdered at a society funeral, Anson is sent back undercover... and into the jaws of a trap from which not even Gin can rescue him. June 1998. Ella Dommerich's ninety-something aunt Julie ropes her into digging up dirt on Senator (and Presidential candidate) Franklin Hardcastle in order to settle old family scores. When the Hardcastle secrets lead to a web of shady dealings Ella has uncovered in her job as a financial analyst, Elle is soon standing alone between a legendarily ruthless family and the prize it has sought for generations.
