This is a workplace rivalry book, We have Katherine a woman in her forties who is an editor of a magazine which has just been taken over, she has just come back to work after being off with MH issues, and Lily in her twenties, Lily is an intern and the niece of the new owner and she basically wants to destroy Katherine.
This is told in both Katherine and Lily’s POV and what I first thought was just going to be a rivalry between the different ages turned out to be more sinister.
I didn’t like either character all that much, and I did struggle to get through this, I had to keep putting it by to read something else, it was a little slow. It was dark and twisty with secrets but it wasn’t for me.
