There’s only one way to join their society. If someone leaves, or dies…

High-flying lawyer Sara O’Neil had it all; the career, the money, the prestige.

And then she jumped to her death.

Cassandra Harlow never expected to see her friend fall from their office rooftop. Someone knows what really happened. But the only people who might know the truth are a secret women-only society, Inside, whose promise is to fast-track your career.

But if Sara was part of it and they helped facilitate her rise to the top, could they also be the reason she came crashing down to earth?

I had no idea what to expect from this book but I can easily say it was fabulous. 

I didn't see the twists coming and it moved at a really fast pace.

I loved the idea of their being a club for women like the old Men's clubs but never did I imagine what would really be going on.

And the look into what I feel are almost certainly true and shocking working practices in law firms,  especially for women are both eye opening and shocking. Made me glad I wasn't a high powered lawyer.

Cass is a great heroine,  if a little carefree towards her own safety but determined to find out the truth about Sara's death. And discovers a lot more than she would have ever guessed. 

Utterly fabulous,  this was the first book i have read by the author,  and definitely won't be the last. Hard to put down, and very quick to devour. 

Thank you to One More Chapter and Netgalley for this copy which I have reviewed honestly and voluntarily.
