Victoria

Thought- provoking debut
Thanks to Celadon Books and Edelweiss for the advance copy. The novel appears to be inspired by the Natalee Holloway case with many similarities to the facts there. You could term this a mystery, as the final resolution doesn’t come until the end of the book, but it’s not really a mystery but an examination of white/wealthy privilege and inherent racism. I found the book thought provoking and would recommend it.
