Very Bad Company

Brigid says: Author Emma Rosenblum’s thrilling page-turners with unlikable characters making awful decisions are quickly becoming auto-buy reads for me. They are acerbic and full of sharp observations without being too scary or gory. Her latest is a fascinating look into a tech start-up’s swanky executive retreat. There is an absurd CEO obsessed with Winston Churchill, an anxious head of HR, an overeager assistant, a newcomer to the team, and more on the doomed weekend getaway. Plus, this Floridian reader was entranced by the swanky Miami setting and itinerary jam-packed with real life locales that I have either visited in person or found entertaining to Google. Think Very Bad Things plus The Social Network in South Beach. Content warnings apply.
