This novel features legendary wealth, rich people misbehaving, and a murder investigation in a gorgeous vacation setting after a young woman drowns. This incident is a stark reminder of another tragedy that took place back in 1992, Years ago, a member of the Lingate family, was found dead under suspicious circumstances below the cliffs of Capri. This young mother’s death still haunts her brood both in the press and in private. Helen, still mourning the loss of her mother, wants to shake off the restrictive shackles that come from being in a clan with a position of prominence. Her plan to get away is now undergoing an autopsy.
I have never envied the rich or famous . . . being on display and ogled by the public doesn’t seem appealing at all. It’s one thing to be born into a situation, but I can’t imagine walking into oppression eyes open. Is maintaining a life of luxury worth losing your entire sense of self?
Get ready for some unlikable characters, a few twists and turns in the plot, shocking family secrets, and a poor little rich girl.
I recommend this book for fans of opulent lifestyles, celebrity gossip, and family drama,
I thank NetGalley and the publisher for an advanced copy of Saltwater for my unbiased evaluation. 3.5 stars
