A perfectly fine way to spend an evening but the book, in its entirely, is utterly forgettable. There are some interesting storylines in there, but I literally just put the book down and I’d have trouble explaining any of them. Or match the character names to their subplot. SO many characters. SO many rich white people. Meh.

A good, twisty mystery that looks into the behind-the-scenes activity of an uber-exclusive club.
