Pretty interesting. I think I it’s very easy to judge that these were “bad people” but…why they got in the situations they were in and how they handled things was what they felt was best at the time. It’s easy to judge when it’s not your life.

This reads like White Lotus… the story starts with a dead body and then goes back in time, switching between character POVs until finally revealing how the person died and who was responsible. All the characters are awful people which might work for tv but didn’t leave me wanting to come back to this book.
