I initially didn’t like the main character Jess, but become quite fond of her later.
While I think I preferred Foley’s The Guest List more, I do think this book is well written and has a satisfying end. I also do admire that the book does try to touch upon some socioeconomic issues that prevail the world, mentioning the riots in Paris, and exploring how money and power is gained.
This book was less murder mystery, maybe due to how it was structured, and more “let’s learn secrets as we go along”.
If the pacing at the beginning was better, I may have liked this book more. I wouldn’t discourage anyone from reading it tho. If you’re interested, go ahead!
