Reviews
'Vivid, immersive and compulsive, the layers of detail are gorgeous, and the quick wit and devious twists mean that you know everyone is lying, but it's a rollercoaster ride to find out what they're lying about'
'A joyous, addictive exploration of materialism and excess, beautifully conjuring Hong Kong in all its societal layers. This is a delightfully dark novel which brings to mind The Great Gatsby in early 21st Century Hong Kong'
'Smart, suspenseful, and utterly addictive'
'Glamorous, shocking and deliciously deceptive. The kind of sharp, exciting and sophisticated mystery I just adore'
'A richly drawn and riveting tale of friendship gone wrong, with too many secrets, twists, and lies to count'
'Kristina Pérez crafts an engaging tale of intrigue, glamour and hyper-status conscious expatriates, laced with claustrophobic menace and mystery.'
'A smart, twisted story filled with secrets and lies played out in the vibrant, glittering setting of Hong Kong'
'A twisty thriller with rich and complex female friendships. I tore through this one'
'With its richly drawn setting and thorny, complex characters, this story of two women, a friendship, and a fateful night keeps you guessing to the end'
This whirlwind of a novel presents a glittering façade and then shatters it, exposing the violence and racism that lies behind
'A thrilling expose of ex-pat life; deliciously dark and compelling'
'Full of glamour and intrigue, beautiful people doing awful things ...An entertaining read with a mix of characters who the reader will either love or hate, in a setting that is exotic and dangerous, mixed with the crazy history of this unique place. Recommended.'
