“It’s impossible to say what’s more compelling about this marvelous book: the story itself—an epic tale of greed, resilience, and hypocrisy playing out against the backdrop of one of the most stunningly gorgeous pieces of real estate in the entire world—or the skill with which Amy Gamerman has masterfully woven a set of complex themes into narrative that boasts all the page-turning compulsiveness of a true-to-life thriller.”
