Following several wealthy families of Washington D.C. after the murder of the Ranks, we are thrust into the intricate politics of being affluent. 

The author writes from different character perspectives throughout the book, showing how each of their lives are intertwined and affected by the sudden deaths. Bunny, in particular, is highly motivated to look deeper into her privilege. She finds herself questioning her families history and status. When a black man is accused and arrested, she takes it upon herself to see why the murders happened. 

I enjoyed the diversity of the characters and the believable traits each portrayed. I also enjoyed the ending. Everything is not alright. 

Unfortunately, I did have issues following the plot. This story is more of a commentary on the elite, and it takes a minute to get used to the idea of finding meaning in the action rather than a conclusion.
