It was good with some good secrets but ultimately not one that I’ll think much about in the future. It did take me a while to get into it because there were so many characters to keep up with and some that I really really didn’t care about. Just a good story where no one is really a good person in the end. If you like rich work drama, this is a must.

A drama filled workplace read! I really connected with this one because I am in the corporate event industry and know the locations and initeraries of retreats like the one in the book. It's an interesting cast of characters. I enjoyed the multiple POVs and secrets everyone seemed to have.

I liked the way this book took corporate culture on, it was way over the top and yet so realistic.
There were quite a lot of characters, which made it hard to keep up at times. It was great to see everyone being unlikeable and yet I did not dislike them, the author did a great job giving everyone a backstory which made you understand were they came from.
All in all it was an enjoyable book, not so much a thriller and at times a bit too complicated for my tastes, I just wanted a light read.
