Bluff by Jane Stanton Hitchcock

Maud Warner is accustomed to being underestimated and invisible because she is an older woman. But her late-in-life passion for poker has taught her that she can turn those weaknesses into strengths to take advantage of people who think they are taking advantage of her. Thus, when the one time socialite walks into a famous New York restaurant on a sunny October day and shoots Sun Sunderland, the "Pope of Finance," and then miraculously escapes, she deals the first card in her high-stakes plan for revenge. Her intimates in New York high society believe that "Mad Maud" accidentally missed her real target: Burt Sklar-the man she's accused for years of stealing her mother's fortune and leaving her family in ruins. But nothing is as it first appears in this twisty quest for vengeance. While Maud is on the run, the dark secrets of men who believe their money and power place them above the law will be exposed. Betrayal, larceny, greed, sexual battery, and murder lurk beneath the surface of their glittering lives. One unexpected twist after another follows as we watch a fierce, unapologetic Maud try to take down her enemies and get justice for her friends as she plays the most important poker hand of her life. Her success depends on her ability to bluff. Can she win?
