The Banker’s Wife is coming to the small screen. Deadline reports Amazon has ordered a TV show based on the novel by Cristina Alger.

The drama “is a high-stakes international thriller set in the world of global finance, from Geneva to Paris, London and New York, about two women racing for answers when a mysterious plane crash sets them off on parallel pursuits of truth.”

Amazon has ordered eight episodes of The Banker’s Wife. Meredith Stiehm will write all eight episodes and Lesli Linka Glatter is set to direct.

From Amazon boss Jennifer Salke:

As soon as we read The Banker’s Wife, we knew this would be a series that our Amazon Prime Video customers will love, a fast-paced, compelling story that pulls you in immediately. We’re thrilled to be working with Meredith and Lesli to bring their vision to the screen.”
