Guillotine

By Delilah S. Dawson

Book Overview

The Menu meets Ready or Not in this dark tale of opulent luxury and shocking violence from the New York Times bestselling author of Bloom.

Thrift fashionista Dez Lane doesn't want to date Patrick Ruskin; she just wants to meet his mother, the editor-in-chief of Nouveau magazine. When he invites her to his family's big Easter reunion at their ancestral home, she's certain she can put up with his arrogance and fend off his advances long enough to ask Marie Caulfield-Ruskin for an internship someone with her pedigree could never nab through the regular submission route.

When they arrive at the enormous island mansion, Dez is floored--she's never witnessed how the 1% lives before in all their ridiculous, unnecessary luxury. But once all the family members are on the island and the ferry has departed, things take a dark turn. For decades, the Ruskins have made their servants sign contracts that are basically indentured servitude, and with nothing to lose, the servants have decided their only route to freedom is to get rid of the Ruskins for good...

GUILLOTINE by Delilah S. Dawson I love when terrible people get what’s coming to them —it’s so gratifying! Unfortunately, disappointingly, that it never happens in real life. That said, this was a great book to escape into. Sure it’s disturbing, and murder is not exactly the best way to deal with awful people… But you know what? Good for them! These characters had (many) valid reasons for their actions. I was rooting for them and was thoroughly entertained by the multiple depraved methods of getting the job done. Recommend if you’re looking for something fast paced, violent, and… fun!? Rating: 4/5 ⭐️

Love!

I support women's rights, but more importantly, I support women's wrongs
