    Mark,

    Re your comment below:

    "And under the name Mark Sadler, Dennis Lynds wrote a series about a private investigator who plied his trade in a corporate setting. Can't remember if any of those corporations who employed him were financial, but given Lynds's leftist politics, it wouldn't surprise me a bit."

    Good catch! Dennis also wrote a series about a PI named Kane Jackson who also specialized in industrial, big business cases. He wrote these as "William Arden."

    And doesn't Don Winslow's CALIFORNIA FIRE & LIFE, featuring an insurance investigator who specializes in arson, hinge on some sort of high finance scam?
