If Saltburn and A Midsummer Nights Dream had a baby, it would be this book.
On the coast of Devon (I think??) there is a new luxury resort opening up and only the rich and elite are invited. The rest of the community is enraged because this luxury resort has upset jobs, housing markets, and other small businesses. During the opening weekend the locals and the yuppies will build into a crescendo together until something (or someone) explodes.
I listened to this as an audio book and we all know I am a notorious audio book hater but this was pretty good. My library had like a 16 week wait for the hardback, and a part of me wishes I had just waited because it was hard to understand the story in the beginning just by listening to the narration. Overall I'd recommend this to anyone who wants a good summer thriller.
