What a gripping book, I was hooked reading about the shady dealings of the wealthy and elite (and those trying to be the wealthy and elite). I liked how the end tied in nicely with some parts in the middle of the book, as well as the non-linear narrative that was similar to Memento.

Real Housewives meets Murder She Wrote.  98% unlikeable characters and you don’t even root for the least unlikeable.  But I still wanted to know how it played out.

I went into this book blind and it was a good ride. Well written. Characters you love to hate. Slightly predictable ending but still fun.
