Description

When an over-the-hill American actor finds his wife, a rising star in Bollywood, dead in their Mumbai high-rise, he quickly becomes the prime suspect in this atmospheric, razor-sharp social mystery. Lucy Foley meets The White Lotus and perfect for fans of Age of Vice.

"A deliciously twisting plot, vividly realized sense of place, and scalpel-sharp satire."―Lucy Foley

"A fascinating mystery and a scintillating social critique. Fresh and addictive!"―S. A. Cosby

Washed-up American heart throb George Abercrombie hates India, even from his apartment on the 68th floor of Mumbai's grandest luxury skyscraper, the Pinnacle. He hates the noise, he hates the heat, and just maybe he's grown to hate his wife, the newest queen of Bollywood, Sweety Sahota.

So when George wakes from a drunken stupor to find Sweety murdered in their bedroom, he knows just how badly he's cooked. But where is Sweety's computer? Or her cellphone? And where has his personal assistant gone? As George scrambles to piece together the night, others in the building are covering their tracks. Sweety's assistant must find who is blackmailing her, and a servant who knows too much goes on the run...

The Pinnacle is a dazzling and addictive thriller that's three plots in one, set against a world of lavish opulence where someone is always watching--because everyone is hiding something.
