astonishing read, plunging you into a toxic world of Insta-wealth,
betrayal and ruthless ambition

A great story and a spectacular con
*The Spectator*
Outrageously entertaining... populated with the kind of gaudy

shocking, compulsively readable story serves as a cautionary

A gripping read. Jamie Bartlett races through this compelling tale
of corruption, ambition and intrigue
