The Darlings: An absolutely gripping crime thriller that will leave you on the edge of your seat
Autor Cristina Algeren Limba Engleză Paperback – 16 apr 2020
From the author of The Banker's Wife and Girls Like Us comes an explosive drama about family, greed and high society scandal.
The Darlings of New York are untouchable. But no one is safe from a scandal this big.
When Carter Darling's business partner commits suicide, it triggers a huge financial investigation.
The allegations are serious. The danger of it exposing their private lives is equally threatening.
In times of crisis, the Darlings have always stuck together. But with the stakes so high, how long will their loyalty last?

Recenzii
Two parts Too Big to Fail, one part The Devil Wears Prada, Alger's debut is taut and compelling.
Fits somewhere between the novels of Dominick Dunne . . . and Tom Wolfe's The Bonfire of the Vanities
For those who have only gazed up at the palatial residences of Manhattan, this is a glimpse from the penthouse down
Cristina Alger is so good, you just know she's an inside trader - as intimately familiar with the inner workings of Wall Street investment banks as she is with haute Manhattan social life. She's also a gifted storyteller. The Darlings is an utterly compelling novel, as knowing about family as it is about money and social status
