Murder.com — David Deutsch

New York attorney turned venture capitalist, Max Slade, knows a thing or two about high-stakes situations. But when the man who stole his ex-fiancée away is murdered, Max suddenly finds himself in a brand new role: that of prime suspect. With the threat of prison in his future, Slade turns his hand to investigating and finds himself digging into the dangerous world of corporate takeovers, high-tech espionage, and deadly liaisons in the Big Apple. With his girlfriend pushing their relationship, his past threatening to catch up to him, and a killer closing in, Slade's days are numbered. But if he can outrun the competition -- without spilling his scotch -- he may just be able to outwit a killer. That is, if the killer doesn't catch him first...
