註釋

Set against the backdrop of Wall Street and peopled with characters that make their living in and around banking, trading and high finance, the story of Death's Little Helpers comes straight from today's financial headlines, exploring the tangled intersection of financial markets, media, celebrity and conflict-of-interest. Herbert Bayliss was once the star equity analyst at Pace Loyette Securities (PLS), often quoted in the financial pages, and a frequent guest on all the business news channels. But when the equity markets collapsed, so did Bayliss' fortunes - and nearly as fast. March to find him. 'As a husband, he was a self-centered, womanizing shit, and as a father, he's a zero - on his best day, ' Nina tells March. 'But the little bastard is our meal-ticket, and I'm willing to spend some money to find out if he's off chasing skirt again, or if something else is going on.' As he digs into Bayliss' life March discovers a rat's nest of troubled relationships, both professional and personal, all strained to breaking point. He soon begins to wonder if that 'something else' isn't murder. Probing PLS, the business news channels, and even Bayliss' ex-wife's lover, Ines Icasa, March is led down the numerous alleyways that make up the rabbit warren of corruption in big business..
