Description
Thrift fashionista Dez Lane doesn’t want to date Patrick Carrington; she just wants to meet his mother, the editor-in-chief of Nouveau magazine. When he invites her to his family’s big Easter reunion at their lake retreat, she’s certain she can put up with his arrogance and fend off his advances long enough to ask Marlene Caulfield-Carrington for an internship someone with her pedigree could never nab through the regular submission route.
When they arrive at the enormous mansion on an island in the center of a Georgia lake, Dez is floored—she’s never witnessed how the 1% lives before in all their ridiculous, unnecessary luxury. But once all the family members are on the island and the ferry has departed, shit gets real. For decades, the Carringtons have made their servants sign contracts that are basically indentured servitude, and with nothing to lose, the servants have decided their only route to freedom is to get rid of the Carringtons for good…
Dez and Patrick are on the run, but the more Carringtons she sees die and the more servants who tell their stories, the more Dez realizes that she wants nothing to do with Marlene and her magazine.
In fact, by the end, Dez might be the one strangling Marlene to death with her trademark chunky pearls…
