Everyone knows Gatsby.
New money. Murky past. Huge online following.
‘Stylish and beautifully written, with a case of the most decadently unhinged characters’ JAMES GOODHAND
‘Unputdownable’ ROSIE MULLENDER
Nic Carraway doesn’t belong amongst the super-rich, but when she scores a cheap summer lease in Long Island, it-girl Jay Gatsby becomes her neighbour.
Gatsby welcomes Nic to her opulent parties attended by the world’s A-list. And in return, Nic helps Gatsby reconnect with an old flame: Nic’s cousin, the ever-charming but now-married Danny Buchanan.
But no one can be careless like the rich. As the summer heats up, Nic finds herself tangled in a web of longing and ambition, betrayal and deceit. In a world where everyone is lying – about and to themselves – can Nic finally tell the truth?
For readers of The Paper Palace, this hot summer story genderflips and reimagines F Scott Fitzgerald’s classic novel
”'In this superb retelling, the author deftly places her Gatsby in the social media age, living an American Dream that promises anybody can fake it. It's stylish and beautifully written, with a cast of the most decadently unhinged characters. I highly recommend joining the party” - James Goodhand, author of The Day Tripper
'This timely and unputdownable retelling of the classic tale transports the action to a setting that fascinates and repulses in equal measure. Packed with compelling characters, plenty of intrigue and OTT decadence, it's a seriously impressive debut' Rosie Mullender, author of Ghosted -
