How high flyers live their lives a real eavesdrop into an empires life. How the worm can turn in any relationship or family. Never under estimate anyone when the stakes are high. How low people will go when judgment is clouded by the prize. Well researched and a fast pace read for light reading if this genre is loved. I was transported into the rich world of 4 star hospitality. Characters were so well described you were in the room with them. Feeling the emotion and thrill.

Bittersweet dramas enfolded as each characters past came back to haunt them. A beautiful finale to an endearing story.
