Jamie and Clare are fifty-somethings who appear to have it all. They live in a wealthy, established neighborhood in London, and experience the best of everything - food, wine, travel. Kit and Melia are millennials who are struggling to establish themselves in a career and make ends meet. An unlikely friendship forms between the couples, but as they get to know each other, darker sides appear. Clare owns everything and Jamie nothing at all, having left his job after a nervous breakdown. Kit and Melia fight viciously and are sitting on a mountain of debt. You soon get the sense that this friendship will not end well.

I thought I knew where this novel was going and that I had these characters figured out. Nope! What a crazy and enjoyable ride this book was. None of the characters is particularly likeable, which for me made the ending that much more fun. I am surprised this was never made into a movie, because it would make a fantastic thriller for any of the big streaming services. If you enjoy a domestic thriller with unpredictable characters and a sucker punch ending, then this is for you!
