The characters are insufferable and Richard is nothing more than a bystander in all of this with a serious problem of absence of personality, a bunch of pretentious rich kids doing drugs and killing people featurin an idiot who idolizes them . Again I hated everyone but I think that's the point of the book,
I only felt bad for Camilla and maybe Francis at the end
. The book is well written, I'll give it that.
